   Hi Bob,   
   I am as well a satisfied user of an old version of Ciderpress running on XP   
   running under Parallels on my Mac, and I will not blame Andy for not   
   supporting that old OS (EOS 4/2014). I am glad Andy keeps on updating   
   Ciderpress (and I could use Cadius) and    
   I know, by experience, that it is not planned obsolescence.   
      
   With +1% of XP systems still running in 2020, and with difficulties in   
   compiling on modern machines, we either have to stay up to date by upgrading   
   ourselves or let them fly.   
      
   On the Mac world, we have had the same problem with the 32 vs 64-bit support.   
   We were warned. Some people have waited (and for good reasons: work or   
   personal, the Apple II is a hobby) and now, Sweet16 does not run on modern   
   machines and OSes. And if we    
   are not satisfied, we can use old versions.   
      
   Myself, I cannot use the latest updates of Ciderpress, but I do not care, my   
   current version runs fine under XP.   
      
   Keep up the good work,   
   Antoine
