TECHTRONLOGO1Everything is getting renewed and updated these days. Making it “better”. But the question to be asked is: “Is newer always better?”. Not really. Some things are like wine… The older it is, the better!

We all know that these days more and more programs are being made compatible with only the latest OS. All support on the older OSs is being discontinued. Meaning: The people who can’t afford to buy a new system with the latest OS are gonna have a teensy weensy problem, be it now or later. But why fear when Tech tron is here?

Enter: http://www.oldversion.com/

The Lowdown:

Its a simple website really. Nothing fancy and all that.

The website indexes loads of programs with a lot of their older versions which run on older Op-Systems. To be exact its 2479 versions of 182 programs, and it has all those popular programs like Y! Messenger, foobar, Napster, Mediamonkey etc.  So if you’ve got stuck with some old OS somewhere… be sure to use this.

We’ll cover hack attacks in another post ’cause I at least have to show you how to keep your wi ndows running good. Believe me when I say I’ve seen a few very very rusty windows OS’s They look like they’re running without RAM (although that’s not possible) and sometimes my system acts the same way!! (Its really old). What do we do then?

Use these programs to fix it!

(1)CCleaner: This baby from Piriform is famous all around! Actually this is a waste mentioning it here as most of you will be already using this. But for those of you who aren’t, lemme tell you what it does.
