[OPLINTECH] SteadyState - no Win7

[Ed Liddle]

You can always downgrade windows 7 to XP until your ready to move off of steady state. Does anyone know if envisionware's LPTOne software is officially supported on windows 7 yet ?

# Windows 7 Professional and Windows 7 Ultimate include downgrade rights to Windows XP Professional, Windows XP Tablet PC Edition, or Windows XP x64 Edition.

Many of you may know this, but it is my understanding that Windows SteadyState is *not* supported, and *not planned to be supported*, on Windows 7.

See:http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=d077a52d-93e9-4b02-bd95-9d770ccdb431&displaylang=en

ANNOUNCEMENT: Windows SteadyState will continue to be available for download through December 31, 2010. Support for Windows SteadyState will continue to be available through the Microsoft Knowledge Base portal through June 30, 2011.

This announcement does not affect your right to continue to use Windows SteadyState.
