I have never worked with WP so I cannot give an opinion on it.MrGarabaldihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05768774166065615995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444550425694584077.post-65407567927364874172014-04-06T18:03:47.263-04:002014-04-06T18:03:47.263-04:00I suppose for someone who actually knows what thei...I suppose for someone who actually knows what their doing, other brands of hardware, browsers and operating systems might be superior, but for a idiot like me, who doesn't have a clue about anything, my Acer Chromebook does everything I need right out of the box, and if I ever have a problem with it, I'll just throw it away and buy a new one.<br /><br />One other thing. Will someone please tell me what advantages Wordpress has over Blogger. Every experience I have ever had with Wordpress has been a pain in the ass. <br />I use the demise of Conservative Blogs Central as an example to support my position. golden geese newshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06456006010918216238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444550425694584077.post-31333820615336345922014-04-06T15:14:25.602-04:002014-04-06T15:14:25.602-04:00XP works.

That's the short, complete explanation; regardless of what anyone else says. <br /><br />Why Microsoft didn't elaborate on the software, fix security problems, offer inexpensive upgrades and continue with the operating system is beyond me. <br /><br />From the marketing perspective: Give your customers what they want. Make it better, more comfortable and don't mess with the basic design. <br /><br />From the user perspective: In spite of some minor initial quirks, XP is stable, easy to use and has little problems in its present state. <br /><br />From the developer's perspective: Gee, those programmers we hired are getting bored. Let's see what monstrous, cumbersome, confusing, crappy operating system, full of spaghetti-code they can create. We need to insure they understand we want this system to appeal to those that waste their time on social networks and completely alienate the business community that spent billions of dollars on our software.
