![]() ![]() I have a prehistoric PC (Pentium 4, GeForce 4 Ti4600, at the top of the I use the first viewer (now 1.23.5) since 2008. Hi all! The thing I fear the most is that, one day or another, I will be unable to logon to SL… I know v1.2.3 will be missed, but not by me. And since v3.2.4, significantly so with the caveat that some new bugs have crept in causing a small set of people to be left off of seeing that improvement, for now. ![]() However under the hood, the technology inside of v3 -is- better than both v2 and v1. That convinced me that its not at all about which has the better UI, but where on the table people like seeing their cheese. I was hesitant to change at first myself, but back in 2009 a rumor came out that they were going to disable v1 logins ‘real soon now’ so in response I forced myself to spend a very active week logged into v2 only – and at the end of it my expectations had flipped and I found v1 more ‘bulky’ than v2. I’m all for all of the v1 viewers fading out, if only so that there is more consistency in SL again – though I understand some are very reluctant to give up old ways and adjust to a round icon now being square. ![]() But honestly that’s a dead machine anyway – I have no rational reason to expect support for it, and I don’t (despite still owing money for it on my credit card bill, even though the four machines we’ve bought since, including another Mac were all both cheaper and paid off – a lesson on being smart about choices when you buy). Power PC Macs cannot run the newer stuff. This will kill it for my old 2003 iBook g4. Resistance to change is resistance to enlightenment. Shakyamuni put it best we die and are born a thousand times every second. ![]()
