I feel your pain. My car just told me that my phone is too old.


It gets ridiculous when your refrigerator complains about the age of your washer and dryer.

Wondering......
If 95% of the computers are Win10+, do you really think they will go after old 7 boxes?
They have better odds going after the most prevalent OS systems.
I'll bet they are not even trying to hack XP boxes anymore.
They'll go with the odds of hitting.

I just built a new Windows 11 machine and didn’t find any old Aps that wouldn’t run, and that includes Office 2010 (Outlook, Word, Excel, PPT…). The only thing I cannot get to work yet is my older Canon Pro 9000 MK2. The network, USB ports, video/displays, scanners, printer and audio worked right out of the box - all the drivers installed automatically. Boot is about 3 seconds, and everything else is essentially instantaneous (Intel I7 12700K, Asus MB, 64GB Corsair DDR4 and Samsung 980 Pro and 970 m.2 SSDs, EVGA 3060 graphics). Had a case and PS and reused the peripherals and graphics card, so the cost was <$1,000.

I just put Quicken 2007 on my new Win 11 laptop, from CD. IT RUNS!

You know, you could simplify things and just shoot JPEG and all this goes away


I may just do this for a while.

I recently traded in my Macbook Pro for a Macbook Air. My first and only mistake, albeit a big one, was not reading the requirements of the software that I relied upon. Thankfully, Best Buy offers a 30 day return program!

I posted this on another thread and the ideas seem to be needed here too. When considering a new camera, I do the following:

I look at the cost of the new camera.

I look at the impact to all my technology, do I need new software, or a new computer, or more storage?

I look at the impact to my lenses, do I need new / more / different models?

I look at my current camera, have I exhausted the economic value of the current model? Was my current body built for 10+ years of heavy, regular (aka professional) use? It is really ready for replacement?

I look at the pixel resolution, does the next model give more resolution or is it actually a step down, or no change at all?

Don't forget you may need to buy some new memory for the camera

A minor expense, and yes, I did.
