I have win10 and do not use edge i use firefox and chrome and
thunderbird. and internet explorer is still there under accessories if i
want it or i can put it on the desktop. and win10 is also faster than
win7. i gave it a win7 style start menu with the free classic shell at
classicshell.net . turn off cortana and stuff you may not want or need
and you have a faster win7 but nice and up to date. i never use cortana
i have my android phone to talk to that is enough for me. got latest
NVDA and latest jaws on here as well. both work great.

I was immediately told that Windows Live Mail was no longer being
supported. I told the tech that, while this is nothing against you
personally, your company's policies of no longer supporting their
software is the biggest boatloat of unnecessary crap that I have
encountered. I've had a machine for 4 days and you don't support the
software? He suggested that I migrate to Windows 10. I let him know
that until Microsoft made the Edge browser and the eMail client that
comes with it accessible, I was not interested. I feel that it is not
up to a third party screen reader developer to make the operating
system usable. It is up to the operating system developer. I feel
more strongly against Microsoft than you do, and have felt this way
for a long time.
If you think you're finished, you! really! are! finished!!

Well I've now seen three win 7 machines explode on me, so you must've
been
lucky.
Either way, glad to here I don't have to use cruddy outlook when I
eventually get a new machine.
God I hate microsoft!
Beware the grue!

At Dark,
No idea what you mean by Windows 7 being buggy, it is far more stable
than XP ever was.
I liked Windows XP back in the day, but by the time 7 came out, it was
showing its age.
And no, even using older developer kits, software developers are under
no obligation to support computers using dead (and that is what
Windows XP is, dead) operating systems. Again, if you want to use it,
I do not begrudge you that, but just keep this fact in mind.
Also, curiosity compels me to ask, but what are you working on a
doctorate
in?

Hi John.
I've heard of liber office and I suspect supernova would indeed be
fine
with
it, but since this is the doctoral thesis I've been working on for
the
past
eight years, I'd rather not risk changing at this point, since
anything
goes
wrong I'm in trouble.
Hopefully it'll all be done by september, november at the latest, but
since
I also have a new house to sort out and what I'm doing with the
rest of
my
life it's not quite on the pripority list, another reason I'm sorry
games
don't work with xp, though I am about to install manamn on my
wif'es win
7
machine and try the game out at least.
All the best,
Dark.

You don't actually need ms office - google "libre office", and give
that
a
try.

Nope, everything has been tried. Folder lists do not display
probperly,
downloads are partially completed, and lets not talk about that
bloated
messmicrosoft outlook, frankly it is a pile of shite.
Since there are compatibility issues I will probably get a win 10
machine
laqter this year (if I've got to have a crappy os it might as
well be
the
latest crappy os), though since I need ms office for my phd thesis I
can't
do that now, plus there's moving house and various other things to
consider.
Still, I'd much! rather have xpp and really i don't like the fact
that
the
only reason not! to use xp is because microsoft are greedy
bastards who
prefer to break than make something better, killing about 20
years of
software compatibility in the process.
All the best,
DArk.
