      Most still will. Like I’m sure a lot of people are doing, I was trying to reuse old hardware for a new purpose. Perfectly good computer with 16GB of RAM with an AMD A8-3850. I’m not complaining about progress’s march towards the future, but I missed the warning signs about the changes. I’m sure some other folks probably did as well.
