Hey all,
 
NA> Since 2000 I've taken a mountain of insults, techno-nonsense and outright
NA> hysteria over running my BBS on Windows because I will be "hacked
NA> tomorrow".
 
Well I wasn't hacked (and didn't expect to be really), just wanted to update a
bit and have settled on Windows 7.  Windows 10 wouldn't even run DB, not even
the installer, Wine was a no-show as it told me to install Dosbox (maybe I'll
do this one day if I'm bored), so I just set up Win 7 to check it out.  Turns
out it is still updating, not sure if they're recent, but it did run Windows
update over and over until it was done.
 
The only thing I really noticed was having to run DB as Administrator to set
up (and I'm assuming modify) the Bink service, along with the firewall being a
bit different.  Other than that it's going fine.
 
That being said, it's my other instance of DB running Win7 at the moment, not
this one, so I need to get of my a$$ soon and do this one too :-)  
Thanks,
Dean.
