And they wonder why I hung on to XP as long as possable!Originally Posted by qbert69
The IT numpties have just made me up grade to 7 ços my faithful old XP laptop wont work with the "cloud", and typical of IT they were too busy having a wet dream over ordering a new PC that has a gazillion tetra bites of ram they forgot to ask the end-user what they actually wanted. The result is I now have a PC with no SD slot! And what do I do a fair amount of every day? load firmware onto SD cards! ........Plonkers!!!

At least 50% of IT is a solution looking for a problem.
Yer just luck it wasn't a MacBook Air!....Literally, nothing but air and no substance!!!
And typical of management/sales to not properly qualify the requirements of the user first BEFORE buying/selling!
DOH!
But wait. i still use xp at home. i still get updates .
I ain't moving untill i really have to. everything works, so i am still clinging on there for simplicity. installed 10 on a separate hd and can boot to it by just switching on my computer bios which drive to boot in 1 minute. xp rocks.

Get yourself a decent external usb memory card reader that supports multiple types of cards for about 25 dollars. I do a lot of firmware with usb and thought my laptop usb port would not last more than a couple of months. well have been using this laptop now for about 5 years and the ports are working fine. bigup here for dell laptop, it sure takes a beating.
