Agreed. If I didn't accept change then I'd still be writing C under DOS. I am just getting tired of change FOR THE SAKE of change. It's getting to the point now where you can't finish tooling up and learning how to produce with said tools before someone is trying to sell you another one.

You don't see this rate of change in corporate environments. I guess MS and others are counting on the consumer who seems to want a "new one" every time someone advertises it.

Oh well ... I could ramble on this for hours. Suffice it to say I'm not inclined to "upgrade" this time around. I think I'm going to sit Windows 8 out.
