Money's tight at the moment and right now I simply can't afford it. It maybe different by the end of the month, but until things improve I'm going to have to read a book or something. As for the obsolete outdated OS, it's like me I guess, I used XP for most of the time I was in the industry and can get it to do almost anything. I love it because it's very easy to rip out all the bits that aren't needed to run the game and build a custom virtual machine that's only 5-6GB instead of having all the bloat wasting space. So yes there's a point at which you just have to cut your losses and this seems as good a time as any.
