I sure would like to be on the cutting edge, but sadly I haven't kept up the the tech advances. Many years ago, I knew all of the DOS commands and wouldn't even go to Windows for a long time. It's hard for me to believe now that I used to teach some computer application classes. I'm running XP with no problems. I would be happy to keep it that way, but I know that will not be possible to do. I remember when Quicken changed it's file type format and forced everybody to upgrade; That really ticked me off. I've been keeping up with the PG Music upgrades and they are very worthwhile. Overall, the tech advances have been phenomenal. I certainly don't want to go back to the slow speeds of the olden days. When it's time to upgrade, I'm going to get a new laptop with Win 7 installed. My Toshiba p105 is working just fine, but I have to face the reality that it won't last forever. Unless you can fix your own computer, like Matt can, you are stuck with upgrading eventually.

Music applications are my main usage applications now. When it's time for the new computer, I'm going to try and get one configured specifically for music and sound applications. FWIW
