well ms support on malfunctioning things really is not great I could
go on about the good and bad things I had with ms.
I had one issue with support and some updates and this was resolved
and noted down.
over the phone.
However I had a speech issue and did it over email.
the solution totally mangled something and I just had to reformat.
They then had the cheek to send me an email.
If I'd have known I would have just reformatted rather than spending
time bothering with support, I am still brassed off about that actually.
I wasted 3 days, in which time I would have restored from my backups
and been happily on my way.
On the subject of swamp I am not sure if swamp is 3d or not.
at any rate most of it is handled by the server.

Hi James,
Well, unfortunately that argument doesn't hold up for the long term.
Besides there are workarounds for many of the things Dark and others
don't like. Things like Classic Shell are there precisely to restore
menus and some of the classic dialogs to Windows 7 and Windows 8 that
Windows no longer offers. Its not a perfect solution or fit for having
an XP-like UI but its close enough. There is customization available
if people want it, but they have to be willing to make the effort for
it. However, I'm not going to argue the point any more, because I
firmly believe as been done so many times in the past these XP users
will bitch, moan, and groan a while and then upgrade anyway. So why
argue with them?
Cheers!

hI there
To be fair not everyone is going to like a piece of softwear
that is why
there is so many different types of OS's out there. that is what makes the
world go around. If he tried win 7 and din't like it then why should he use
it? if what he likes is XP then why not use the hell out of it?
well that is untill there is no serport for it.
