I've stopped Windoze at XP-Pro.

It's gonna be a while b4 I move on.

Being a Luddite, I also still prefer desktops with huge monitors to "smart" phones and tablets (though I do use my wife's electronic/digital equipment while on the road).

It looks like I'll be keeping XP well past the support cut off date. I can't afford a MAC, not tech savoy enough for LINUX, {if I wanted frustration of learning a new OS & finding things I'd go with W-8} so I'm stuck with it. I'll keep updating Firefox for a browser till the computer dies. I noticed my doctors medical group is still using XP also. Most places I've seen are still using XP.

I'm not against newer more portable gadgets to use while traveling or out and about. However I want my Documents located in my home on my hard drive and my back ups plus a screen at I can see. Whoevers bright idea it was for a Desktop Touch screen format should be given Worst Idea Of the The Year Award.
