Quote: Keep in mind that Windows 7 will only be supported by Microsoft until January, 2020 which is only about 14 months away. Then you will be have to use Windows 10 as Windows 7 will go the way of XP and Vista.
Drac does that mean like the XP you won't want to go on the internet with a windows 7?

That's correct, Winfrey. Windows 7 will no longer receive security updates.

I'm installing Lost Horizon now so I will let you know. Not sure when I will actually get to play it! I'm currently typing one handed ;) I have been dying to play Lost Horizon 2 since it came out, but my computer wouldn't run it. I thought I'd replay number 1 first...

Funny how you get to be an expert at that one-handed stuff with a little one!

I still haven't gotten anywhere with games! 15 minutes of Puzzle Agent, 10 minutes of Lost Horizon and a couple of hours of the new Leisure Suit Larry...
