Those are used do very precise PROFESSIONAL work. I am also running linux dualboot on many of my machines where new Windows wont even boot and works great.Īnd if professionals do not use old OS why many CNC machines I seen on production runs Windows 98, 95, 2000 etc? Because software been many times designed for those and system and upgrade would break them. And running old hw and os does not mean all software must be old. I got knowledge and experience run OS I want as daily driver. Well I am professional and work with servers and run XP and 98lite on my personal machines for most part and can say running XP requires much more knowledge than buying laptop with win10 preinstalled, downloading chrome to watch cat videos on facebook. I remember one place how they spoke how some stupid peoples without knowledge want still run XP when support ended and how companies think their benefit when dropping sw support and how professional uses Windows 8.1. It is some twisted image on many peoples head that professional only run latest and (not) greatest operating systems and softwares and other only stupid diehard peoples run anything older. It is because supporting legacy os kills "professional look" for some reason. Of all the projects, your browsers are the most important programs for the long-abandoned operating system to be able to use them as daily drivers.

Maybe some money can be thrown together to a reasonable sized heap then to absorb the financial impact. Roytam and Feodor2, I'd like you to tell the community about this if you have to get involved in any kind of legal troubles.

But laws aren't useful all the times! Dammit Moonchild and Tobin! Which advantages do you hope to get through shredding the Mypal project? There is no threat from the tiny amount of people running the XP browsers. In Germany, we say something like: "If the enemy is known, the day has structure." This whole action wasn't rationally thought. With a slogan like: "Look, this scrap computer runs Pale Moon. What a missed opportunity to advertise Pale Moon as that ressource-easy that it can even run on an 20 year old Windows XP machine. now, I regret giving them some money at one point. I won't get away from Pale Moon either, because their product is a proper browser, but after seeing this war unfolding.
