Hi Charlse.
Unfortunately from the perspective of microsoft it is about what sells, and
if you can wrap something up in a shiny box and tell people it is new and
better you can sell more of it, irrispective of whether it actually is or
not, and equally irrispective of whether your poor blind customers will
appreciate the shiny box or just get stuck with the crappy contents.
However, the problem seems to be that because microsoft are forcing people
to upgrade by dropping support particularly for components, people are
getting stuck betwene either A, not upgrading and having a more usable
option but losing out on anything new, or B, upgrading and getting stuck.
This is why as I said for me the point when upgrading is better than not
upgrading just has not been reached yet, and I'm certain that is the same
for others, ---- but it is possible there are workarounds.
I will say that whatever I think of several of apple's practices they do
rather beat microsoft in terms of easy access.
Beware the Grue!
Dark.
