Ever had the pleasure of someone you admire who is WAY SMARTER than you are thinking the exact same thing about something?

The subject is OPERATING SYSTEMS.

Some of you may know I moaned and groaned about the demise of XL and my reluctance to move on to 7.

GUESS WHAT I JUST FOUND OUT? Others much smarter than me FEEL THE EXACT SAME WAY.

I was criticized for dragging my feet and refusing to find joy in the new and improved. As if it were a DEFECT in my intellect. Sheesh. Well folks it ain't. When something works perfectly for you why would you want to exchange it for something that doesn't? Who is that stupid?

So what I/we faced with XL being forced to move to 7 we are now facing with 7 being forced to move to 10. I asked for anyone who LOVES 10 to count the ways and the only response I received was from a very smart pal who feels exactly as I do....book page sentence word.//the same! Prefers XL..had to settle for 7...tried out and dislikes  10 BIGLY! So there! Put that in your pipe and smoke it!

    I don't know anyone way smarter than me. I do know that when my old computer, with XL, finally crashed, I got a new one with 10. It won't accept any of my DVD golf games. Talk about being pissed.

  • Hi, Element 99 !! I am back, please, see my post from today. To your technical question: I have several games on my hard drive, like Magic Jigsaw Puzzles and Word Puzzles - I also have Windows 10. But I have those uploaded from the websites, not from DVD. It is nice to play those without internet connection. Can you go the the developer and ask there by giving the ID of the DVD's you own? It is just an idea and might be worth to try. Nice to have re-connected with you here. Hope all is well.   Edit: I was faster than my brain working. It was Rosie asking a question. Well, Rosie, my opinion is ready for anybody. ♥ This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at November 4, 2019 12:25 PM MST

    I saw your post and replied. Unfortunately, I tossed the golf games. I don't want to download any games as I have privacy issues. I don't even own a smart phone and am not involved with any other social sites. Here only. Once again, good to see you.
