We used it at HP about 4 or 5 years ago when I had a cotract with them to
develop and support a couple of key processes. In fact we had lot's of older
software that still worked well. I'd still like to be using some of it but,
in the wonderful world of MS Windows, it is not possible.

I sure don't want to get started on the latest batch of MS stuff with all
its registration crap and it only allow you to use in on one each desktop
and one each laptop. Plus, MS Office XP's word sure doesn't translate well
into older versions. I'm in the hole, for six computers about $2000 now and
if a hard drive fails I have to go through hell to bring up a new one, legally.

The reason I bring this up is I'm so broke buying MS stuff, I can't afford
to upgrade, or buy new, my old applications. Therefore, I sometimes think
going back is not such a bad idea when so many of the old applications like
Vista worked so well for what we did and do.
