I was actually surprised when IB reversed their decision to EOL 3.x.
Your neglecting that win-xp has been/ will be alive till EOL for 14 years. Additionally, win-7 is the extension/bridge and that too will live for a decade plus.
Just saying... VB3.x should benchmark the success of that business decision
PS, I believe that if one had purchased the 3.x extension at the time offered... all updates are still included till EOL
lol at many people not using facebook. if many arent using it, what term is used for people using it? everyone? Id say taking into account parts of the planet with no electricity and running water, you are correct. Many people arent using it.
