lol, baby steps...
WinXP and Office 97 at home. One function in Excel 2003 added an extra keystroke to a command I use 100's of times. I stopped looking at new ones after that. Keeping an XP box just for this as I don't consider adding a few hundred keystrokes to a process to be an 'upgrade'! OK, actually I am not buying a new 2nd computer because it simply works fine for what it is for. My main at home is Win7 for gaming since there are some that require it and it was time.
I wonder if there is a more evil encouragement under the radar as more and more sites actually break XP/IE, usually for not apparent reason.
Sigh, In 30 years I've gone from cutting edge to near-luddite as any 'progress' seems to have stopped halfway here. Things rarely seem to get better now, just different. And it seems the newer the device the shorter the lifespan. I just replaced a DTV convertor box (4 yr?) before the TV (16 yr).
