Not bad, but misleading. In my experience, anything you write for MS
platform will be incompatible with the next (sub) release of windows and
need re-writing. My advise: Don't waste your time or money with the latest
crap from MS and never buy an upgrade unless you are prepared to "upgrade"
everything else.
