Having used ObjectBar for as long as I can remember, it seems, I've been waiting what has seemed like forever to update from ObjectBar 1.65 on my Win2K rig, waiting in vain for 2.0 to finally surface. I finally decided, screw it, I'll install the 1.99 beta & see if it replicates the functionality of 1.65 without the glitches & at least get an idea of what 2.0 would promise.
Imagine my surprise when, after reviewing the release notes indicating that Win2k or XP were required & that Win98 & ME were no longer supported (the SDC description pane for OB has been woefully neglected), clicking on the Update button generates a message saying OB requires WinXP or higher.
Shucks, XP is the one OS that strictly speaking doesn't need it. Replicating the XP TaskBar & StartPanel on 2K or prior is the principle use, in my view, though I'm sure there are those who find other features to be key.
Will OB2 support Win2K or is 1.65 the end of the road without XP?
Cheers,
Daiwa
