Gotcha!

Post by RockyTSquirrelEverybody has a favorite system..
Sure. Ish.
Post by RockyTSquirrelI still use MS-DOS 6.6 for somethings
Win-ME for somethings
and Win- 7 home for somethings..
So long as they're not an excuse for zealotry. For some people their
favourite operating system is like the one true operating system and death
to all non-believers.
But whether we bring religeon into it or not, if someone has enough of a
soft spot for Win Me such that they still use it from time to time despite
it being inferior to, say, XP in every way, the only reason to use it
predominantly would be hardware so old nothing more recent would run on it.
Personally I don't buy an explanation that someone might be so broke as to
be stuck with 20th century hardware, yet able to afford the juice to run it
and the internet connection to be a regular on usenet. It may well be
theoretically possible but I still think to actually be in that position
requires some degree of mental illness and that more likely the person
using, say, 9x predominantly or entirely, as we head towards 2012, and
shouts it from the rooftops so-to-speak (and berates others for daring to
disagree) is doing so as a religious zealot, i.e. a psychiatric condition.
When 98/Me were current such people came out with much the same stuff about
DOS (generally the MS variant, interestingly, possibly akin to how maybe 99%
of all anti-Windows Linux users who post diatribes to Windows-centric
newsgroups use Ubuntu - not even Kubuntu, let alone Slackware!). And I used
to bait them too, heh heh.
Post by RockyTSquirrelMost of the problems I've had since 1979 have been hardware, not
software..
Having said that, I never did much swapping of software, found what
worked for me and stuck with it..
Yes. Are you sure that isn't just old age?
:)
I say that because I do that myself these last years and I'm _sure_ with me
that's why.
