I still have one PC running XP (SP3) and have it behind a router firewall and anti-virus protection. Only need it to maintain absolute compatibility with some older systems I've written, where clients are still running them, so I won't upgrade it unless it fails (which is more likely to happen with the hardware, which is also pretty old!) Checked about upgrading it to Win7, too many things needed new drivers or software patches for me to try it right now.

Given one has one's own virus protection and spam-blocker, that is. Anyone else have more educated opinions than mine? I SO don't want to give up XP... ann -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
