This is why I built HTML5 for XP, the site that Microsoft should release themselves.
With Apple products being very expensive and Linux just not being as “mom and dad end user friendly” as Windows is this is what we are stuck with.
#Html5 5kplayer xp upgrade
However, if the upgrade means spending a lot of money on new hard and software then I can also understand people who don’t want to do that. For Microsoft this doesn’t make any business sense as they want to sell Seven, and they are right in telling people that systems need upgrades. Now, I personally want to have HTML5 and CSS3 and other new exciting technologies right now – I am tired of writing code for cool things that browsers should be doing for me.Īs Microsoft is spending a lot of time and effort to promote just how cool IE9 is and glosses over the fact that XP users cannot get it, I thought it is time to advertise the fact that users have a choice – even when they stick with XP. The Genuine Check of Vista told users “computer says no” and that was that. A lot of Windows XP machines never got upgraded as they had a pirated OS.Upgrading to Seven normally means that you also need to upgrade the hardware (which is actually a very common happening – as a lot of users simply don’t know what a browser is or don’t get the rights to choose an own browser in a corporate environment IE only gets upgraded when they get a new computer).Upgrading to Vista was not really exciting enough for a lot of businesses when it came out.Internet Explorer 9 is not available for XP users – you need to have Vista or Seven to get IE9.The issues are many ( and I explained them in detail before), but here is the gist: So what is this about? Well, frankly the thing that holds us back when it comes to developing a beautiful and simple to maintain and create web: Internet Explorer not getting upgraded. If you follow me on Twitter then you must have seen the newest little web product I’ve put out : HTML5 for XP.
