I haven't really stayed so far behind. I moved up to Windows 7 for the newer browser. Since IE8 did not support a lot of new "features," I tried out FireFox. Did not like it, but it was an interim step. The only thing that is allowing all of these new "features" is cheap bandwidth. Seems that they keep adding in all of these tasks that absolutely chew up bandwidth. Are these things really necessary? Am I REALLY missing out on so much? I think not. I do NOT need to be targeted for more and more advertising. I also do not need some "internet big brother" watching everything I do on the internet - and then trying to sell me something I do not need or want. I also do not need long running Java scripts eating up my system resources while they mine my hard drive for data - again to sell me something I do not need or want. Of the things that I do on the internet, here is a partial list:
Netflix. I stream video as an alternative to pay tv.
I do online banking.
I pay most of my bills on line.
I visit and participate in several forums.
I locate and buy hard to find items (that I need) on eBay.
Past that, I can't see what else I need or want from a computer. I also store my digital photos, email, and the like on my system. I also expect my computer to be functional without being connected to the internet.
My entire point was that I see little point in change just for the sake of change. Improvement is always welcome. Useless change for the purpose of generating revenue for a software publisher is not.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
