So the march of technology should be determined by your 10-year-old inkjet and copy of Falcon 3.0? I did not say that technology should bend to my desires, I said I should have the option to use new tech or not. My air conditioning is an 8" box fan. Should I be required to install central air? When the phone on my wall is no longer supported, should I be jailed because I choose to venture out into the world without a cell phone? If you refuse to acknowledge old school, you become the slave to modern.

Earlier this week I started getting a notification that Malwarebytes was blocking an attempt inbound to run some Windows processes. Strange. Never got that before. Happened 3 times late Monday and Tuesday. Then it stopped. Later that day I rebooted the computer and got "This is not a valid copy of Windows" which it is. Rebooted and that returned to verified. I started scanning, checking, and spent hours going through everything with in-depth scans. Nothing. Clean. After seeing this I wonder if Microsoft has been the culprit.

I switched to Windows 10 on all devices as i don't have any issues with it and did not like Windows 8/8.1. Plus the focus of protecting Windows OS from malware shifts to the newer OS both on the part of Microsoft as well as anti-virus providers. In addition to that I'm likely to find fewer complications when adding any new hardware in 2017

I don't use my pcs for personal stuff. The only annoying things are the updates that can ruins games that used to work fine before. So no bills, taxes, investments or work activity. Then, games get broken. Pretty sure this covers just about all I have ever used a computer for but maybe I'm alone.
"For I know the plans that I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11
Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Matthew 5:11
Indeed we call blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of the perseverance of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, because “the Lord is compassionate and merciful. James 5:11

I've been using Windows 10 ever since the free upgrade and I love it, actually. I mainly use it for web browsing (I'm in a "phase" of wanting to put together the same type of Ludwig blue sparkle double-bass drum kit that Elvis's former drummer, Ronnie Tutt, used from the Fall of 1970 to August 21, 1974. I'm hoping that I can accomplish this feat before the year is out. I've wanted a kit like that for over thirty years. A friend in Texas put together a kit like I'm describing and I have pics. Here's they are:
