Especially when you can still use assembly, cp/m as well as 'C' and the current rave C++.
Right now the thread on corrupted voicemail to email is locked.
(at the time of this post)
I suggest rather than using windows .au format go to the more standardised and cross-platform .wav files
as they can be played on anything.
In that respect I recently had a good news/bad news email from Stoyan.
where I am at odds is it isn't that hard to keep writing for NT5 as well as NT5.1
in most cases all it involves is one line of code.;
Hello,
as Windows 2000 is really old we stopped support it.
About Linux - Yes we have plans to port FreePhoneLine for it but first target distribution will be Ubunto.
I don't expect to have ready application in next 3 months
best regards,
Stoyan Hristov
FreePhoneLine Team

Bad idea, as well as Mandriva I'm running Linux Mint on one machine.
The horrible decision made only adds fuel to the fire that Redmond is pressuring vendors of every ilk because they secretly desire
that the use of any of their OSs that don't need that activation nonsense fall by the wayside and be downright unusable.
It is the same thing as Internet Explorer vs. every other browser.

For now though I still use 2000 Pro for legacy hardware and software support and because of the ease of the SignupShield Suite,
on my main workstation, though the migration to Linux is ongoing.
There are a core of W2kP users out there as well as Win9x and it is foolish to ignore them but don't take my word for it,
check out Usenet[though I realise that some of you now don't know what usenet is].
Not servicing them would be unwise because they will support those that give them the same in return.

There you'll find ways of stripping that security hole called IE and applications still under development.
I suggest all the above because of the move to open source for all things even my Atari/Mac emulator,
the vendor has taken Gemulator 9 and made it open source.
I guess I've made my point now, so I hope the widest amount of FPL users read this and maybe put the pressure on you
to comply.
(because not everybody can afford to plunk down 300 $ CDN for W7 Ultimate as Steve here can)
.....and while typing this I just received a voice to email and it is unplayable and it comes from a rather important party,
you could be putting me in trouble.
