Sign of the times Martini I'm afraid they bring virtually the same thing out tarted up with a few add ons and try and charge us for the privilege, if your generally happy with what you have then stick with it my motto.

Another scam their trying on is introducing their next OS which needs a load more hard drive/ram so we have to literally buy a new computer.

Something I am presently having to do, bloody annoying but not a lot of exceptable options for me
