Any relative of mine uses old hardware most of the time it's something I have given away, I doubt anyone has any hardware newer than 2008, most of it is ten years old.

Only recently my Aunt went from dial-up AOL to fiber Internet but her CRT monitor is so fuzzy I can barely read it. She uses Word Perfect and barely uses the 20GB hard drive she has.

She's the most tech knowledgeable of my relatives too she worked in a government office for decades but even Win 7 would be confusing.

But she said may soon splurge and buy a new PC but by that time it will all be Win8 so I am dreading that day, I read you can downgrade Win8 to be like Win7 I may look into that more.
