Nice rant, Mixture.
Why thank you. Consider it my Christmas present to you ungrateful lot !
Bah humbug scrooge et al.
Airship never intimated he'd be using XP for another 20 years unsupported.
Given the mention of a 10 year old PC, I wouldn't put anything beyond him !
(April 9th is also far less than 20 years).
Ironically we have onxy recommending we don't update to Windows 8.1. Are you going to give him a rev for that?
8 is still current, so no. As is Windows 7 to some degree (SP1+). My only beef is with the XP (or more ancient
) users !
But honestly, I can't imagine the difference from 8 to 8.1 is so vast as to warrant the rant from onyx !
Still, I've yet to download my free copy from Microsoft, so I'll reserve judgement and report back in due course .... (no doubt our honourable friend, that bloke from Bracknell has already played with 8.1, so he may well report findings sooner)
