well while win8 is really bad maybe win9 will be better maybe if win8
has a service pack it may be bettr.
Vista was not really good till a sp was done.

Hi Charles,
That's true. One that I will strongly consider as a software
developer. However, as I also pointed out there may come a day where
it is no longer possible to support XP and Windows 8 at the same time
without developing and maintaining multiple versions of the same game.
That takes extra time and more effort for little gain. I expect over
the next few years XP use will slowly but surely drop among blind
users as old machines break down, get replaced, etc. While it is true
most blind people can't afford to run out and buy the latest and
greatest given enough time XP users will be in the minority the way
Windows 98 users are today. As a software developer I don't want my
games and software to end up like the BSC games where they have to be
completely rewritten from scratch or given away all because I didn't
stay up to date to begin with.
Cheers!
