   It's not about the users of my programs, but about the developer,   
   which is me. I still run an old computer with win9x. As long as it   
   runs ok, I'm not gonna by a new one, just to have NT based OS and   
   Delphi that needs dotnet technology.   
   I bought my first PC in 1992 (80286), my second one in 1994 (80486)   
   and my third and last one in 2000 (Celeron 700 Mhz).   
   I confess: I'm cheap ;-)

   I do simple stuff, and I can do almost any of it with Lazarus/fpc.   
   If it does not work I try to create a patch for Lazarus or fpc, which   
   for me is part of the fun of programming.   
   (And of course I can continue this hobby on Linux too.)
