Moving to Windows from a Mac
I have used Macs for years and think the are the best. However what I
dislike is that I am CONSTANTLY having to upgrade my OS just to get the support of many third party apps. Windows XP is 4 years older than Mac OSX Tiger, and companies still support it, run it, and produce software for it. Yet many are moving away from Tiger and requiring that I run the latest Mac OS to run their software, or in the case of Quicken, to get my bank statements. Intuit says that downloading credit card statements via Quicken requires the latest and greatest and so in April of next year will abandon Tiger. The problem with this is that the latest Macs CANNOT run Classic, and so my many apps prior to Mac OSX cannot be run. This would be like Windows 7 not being able to run software that is pre Windows XP. If I do the move, what software or hardware do I need to make the transfer? Need all my files, music, movies and such transferred. If I upgraded I most likely would be moving to a Windows 7 computer but I see no Windows 7 Newsgroup. Does MS think that web based forms are superior to Newsgroups? They do have a web based gateway to Newsgroups. Thanks John -- Are there errors in the Bible? Do Animals go to Heaven? Is drinking Alcohol a sin? Is the KJV the only translation to be used? If you want to learn, get answers, and be able to defend the faith, CERM is your place. http://www.cerm.info/ |
