Using Windows 3.1 Still
I did a check this morning of what folks are using to visit jules.ca, and was quite taken aback at the results....
I was surprised that more people are using Vista than MacOSX, but I was even more surprised that folks are still using Windows 3.1...
How is it possible, in 2009, that folks are still using Windows 3.1?
Windows 3.1 came out in 1992.
Using a 17 year old operating system is a bit odd... That means you are also using one of the first editions of Internet Explorer.
Talk about a very limited scope of visibility.
Hrm.
If you are one of the regular visitors to jules.ca - and you use Windows 3.1 - I'd love you to leave a comment on what the defining reason is to stick with such an old technology. Is it hardware limitations? Budget? A love for the original windows file manager?
Cheers.
