[QUOTE="Tom.G, post: 6838841, member: 581973"] The reason I stopped upgrading at XP was that Microsoft had a history of either removing or crippling various functionality that I was using in most (all?) previous upgrades. XP had enough functionality and usability that I got comfortable with it and refused to have more features disappear or get crippled. Over the years I have installed probably hundreds of programs, many of which still see occassional use. The peripherals, such as a flat bed scanner, Laser printer, wide-bed color inkjet printer, Canon still camera, video microscope, would need to be upgraded along with editing software for Audio, Video and still-image files. For instance I recently color scanned 1.3 x 1.6in. item at 9600dpi, which yielded a 528MB file and a screen magnification around 800. So rather than replace the complete hardware & software system, I have chosen to stick with my current functionality for everyday use. I agree that later/current versions for Internet use likely make development easier. But I also suspect there is some "It's a New version therefore it must be better for everyone" mentality. For instance what functionality for the users/members here was improved by the recent changes [SIZE=4][edit][/size] in the PhysicsForums implementation? [size=4][/edit][/SIZE] Well, that's my 2-cents worth, Tom [/QUOTE]
