My issue isn't so much that XP works well; rather, my issue is that this is the computer that is available to me for the present time. It's likely that this computer will be replaced early next year, but in the meantime, it's what I'm stuck with. I understand reasons for not wanting to continue to develop for an obsolete OS, but the fact that Microsoft has ended support doesn't mean that there aren't lots of people using it (many against their own desires...sigh).

I guess I was wondering whether it made sense to permit people to try to run 2.x on WinXP with a "no support promised" sort of caveat. If it works, great. If not, well, you tried.

If not, then I guess I need to think about trying to port my Calibre library from the computer that it currently resides on to my laptop (which, oddly, is far less convenient for me to use).
