What software do you think you won't be able to run. I've been on Windows XP, 7, 8.1, 10, and now 11. Nothing I run has not worked.

MS Office? I'm using the 2007 version. It just seems like there's always some software that will no longer work when I've changed computers.

My wishlist is just for some flashdrives, maybe another external harddrive if the price is right.
Also an AT&T go phone for my dad as his is very long in the tooth. |

I’m still running Office 2007 on my newest Windows 11 desktop and it’s fine. I don’t use it enough to pay for a newer version and have some old Publisher documents that nothing else will open. I’ve had more trouble with Mac apps that stopped working on a new OS than I have with Windows.

My Windows 11 laptop doesn't have a CD Rom.
But Microsft sells a full version of Word for $80 as a download. And they usually have a Black Friday sale. Not that I want to pay for it again, but that will probably be the way I go when I eventually replace my desktop. They do bury the option to buy it on their website. But you don't need to "upgrade" to their subsciption version. (I use Word a lot but am not a fan of subscriptions). |

I would certainly prefer to have a built-in CD drive. I often burn mp3 CDs for my home stereo. |
