Constantine, Re: "I can tell you that it's a fact that no company wants to recompile all their code unless is absolutely necessary and what I mean by that is that they would only do it when their existing platform is not supported anymore or when a serious problem exists and has been fixed in the newer platform." Fine. But if recompiling is out of the question, your choices are to either choose another supplier for your PCs, or live with the lower performance. Find out what's more expensive: having to deal with a third or fourth tier OEM, or suffering the loss of productivity. Personally, I think given those two choices, learning how to support newer versions of your code might start looking better and better. The only thing I can guarantee you is that complaining about this on Internet forums is the least effective way of solving your problem. wbmw
