window xp on it last legs

people who on it we wont be able to download the new internet explorer 9 so i dont know how long before everything else stop making programs for xp like firewalls and anti virus programs i had this pc for years i'm going miss the poor thing

Ah it's all about windows vista now.

yea and window 7

my luck i will get a window 7 pc and they will be bring something new out again...

its a true fact when microsoft bring out a new system they already have the next big thing in the pipe line

mind you steve windows 7 is good

i got window 7 on my laptop, they shouldn't be allow to bring out new OS to soon...... when the bring something out it should last for atleast 10 years, they could of send a few update to make xp like window 7 they just money grabbers..... it get me well mad

they dont have any competition

un less you want to spend a fortune on a mac

Im on a spectrum sinclair, no idea what operating system it has but it has a very fast tape deck

you cant beat a old bbc computer

i better take the dogs out before it get to dark

Oh my god, that is old! No flat screen monitor?! Havent seen that style for years!

god they were the first comps we had at school and they did jack always crashed when you were trying to save onto floppy disk

I hope that doesn't mean I can't use the site?? I only have xp

oo you still be able to use the net but around a year time you may have to buy a new one.. because nobody will be making update or programs for xp anymore

Thank god for that!

cant say for certain but i think theve got to be xp compatable on new programs for 3years after change of os???

i think it been more than 3 year now we had vista for like 2 and half years the we had window 7

lol Steve first computer I had was a BBC acorn electron......I remember it well.....I should do really it was only last year...Im using a mighty 386 with colour visuals and an impressive 56k modem

bbc computer was pretty cool, you could make your own game and all that on them..

you could you just had to type in 16 hours of commands to get a 1 second long game running lol.
I had this book and I remember copying it for weeks...it was a o's and crosses game that crashed after 3 moves lol

lmao yea i had a book i thought it was going be a really good game and end up proper rubiish i was well gutted
