Okay, so your peripheral (due to your budget) is driving your decision
to keep longer than you otherwise would. Hope you're saving to
eventually replace that old plotter/cutter... It will go some day.

Schools are notorious for keeping their equipment much longer.
However here is a twist.
Very often companies will buy new equipment but put legacy OS's on
them because their applications or the vendor of their applications
are behind the curve in getting their systems to run on the new OS's.
have you tried the USB to serial conversion kits?
They do not require a USB driver for the printer end.
You install the USB/Serial convertor and set up the Serial end to
communicate with your device.

Mark this is not at all uncommon as OS and hardware manufacturers do
not take into account what some equipment requires and costs.
These plotters have not gone down in price along with most other
peripherals. They also get much harder to find so their prices actually go up.

Reverend,
Reverting to previous OS versions is more of a Windows thing; it is not
as common in OS X, except for some specialized software packages that
are not yet supported in a new version of OS X. Apple, however, does
not sell previous versions of OS X, people get that from third party

MS never tells anyone what they have to buy.
I think the 1 Ghz processor speed for 7 is quite low.
I have a couple of those still around but they are old!
I bought an Emachine for my daughter in 03 and it was a 2
Ghz. (Which makes it 6 years old)
I know folks that have just upgraded

That is all BS.
When they introduce a new OS they are usually taking advantage of new
hardware features that are available.

As others have pointed out, no one is being forced to buy new hardware.
Our older computers haven't lost any of their capabilities because

Are you so certain hw innovations are driving sw development?I would be happy
with XP through if they never releases a new OS. But I am aware that as
hardware advances they will want to write a new OS to take advantage of the new

The only time I am forced to buy new hardware is when my dies. (Or I
screw up like bending the pins on a CPU.)
