One reason that Microshaft are going to have to work a lot harder to persuade me to change from XP to win 7 than they are is that I know that should I do so I will be unable to get modifications for some of my software and will thus be obliged to acquire the latest versions of this. Some of my software was designed for DOS (thanks Dosbox) some was designed in the days of Win 3.1 and it still works - just. I bet it won't with Win 7 thus the cost of changing OS could approach £1000! For what purpose?
P.P.
