This is more of a rant that anything else, however I would like your opinions.
Far too often, I get seemingly good software to try out, only to find out during install that it needs Windows XP.
Why?
I have 98, 2k, XP, Linux, so why this restriction? I don’t always want it on my XP.
It seems absurd to me.
The only reason I can see so far is M$ trying to squeeze more money out of the consumer, or is it lazy programming?
Now that Vista looms, will a similar requirement be stated?
[b]This program needs at least Vista V 1.x.x.x. to install[/b]
my first knee jerk reaction, GTH M$, I can manage on my own thank you, but how many will this technique con into spending major bux?
