IMO, it would help for software developers to release upgrades (updates are different) for their applications or operating systems only if they want to do something radical with them, or take it in an entirely different direction or to reach for a brand new audience than previously.
Plus, there’s a hefty number of people who received their first home computing experience with XP (like myself), more so than previous Windows versions due to MS’s abnormally-long delay on Longhorn/Vista. That applies to XP and Vista as well: at this point, there is very little obvious incentive for the vast majority of people to upgrade to Vista from XP or 2000, save for DirectX10 and……I guess that’s it. The only point in which you may not want to go from a previous version to Leopard is when you’re that completely satisfied with your computer and what it does that you simply don’t want whatever’s in Leopard.

The point that he’s making is that once Apple moves on to Leopard, and indy developers move on to develop applications which take advantage of Leopard-specific features as well, there will be LESS incentive to update applications which are already made for Tiger or any prior version of OS X. I assume it just means that if you make a Windows XP applications it won’t be hard to get it to maybe work in Windows 2000 (Maybe) So all this backwards compatability talk when it comes to Windows is just talk. (Which is IIS 6 sort of) So they have problems doing tasks that require IIS 6.

The next thing that we found is that MS made a full version of IIS 5 for developers on Windows 2000 pro but for Windows XP pro instead of putting IIS 6 in with Visual Studio they include IIS 5.1 With Windows XP pro. The funny part about it is that the developers are all using MS products.įirst stupid thing we found is that you can not run IIS on Windows 2000 pro or Windows XP pro without being an admin. NET web developers from Windows 2000 to Windows XP and it’s a nightmare. I am working on a project now where we have to move. There are companies that still run Windows NT because their applications don’t work in Windows 2000 (1 release ahead) MS keeps all this software in Windows to be backwards compatable but out in the real world it doesn’t work like that. The funny thing about Windows and this software compatability stuff is that it’s a myth.
The linux Kernel is just as backwards compatable with hardware as Windows.
