nospam: that link is *not* the same as the above, which is *exactly* why tinyurl is *bad* and should never be used, as it doesn't necessarily go to where the user says it does.

in the case of the above, it goes through an ad-tracker which can be blocked (and often is).

That's really odd, it doesn't for me, and using tinyurl's preview function:

http://preview.tinyurl.com/nn9sde8

Shows it pointing directly at Adobe's site. I wonder what happened to your browser when you clicked it. Odd!

nospam
it's not my browser. you are once again, clueless.

the tinyurl you gave links to this: <http://www.dpbolvw.net/click-6154686-10503029?sid=i5jnjckw980002cl0082j &url=https%3A%2F%2Fblogs.adobe.com%2Flightroomjournal%2F2015%2F01%2Fupda te-on-os-support-for-next-version-of-lightroom.html>

dpbolvw.net is an ad-tracking site.

Sandman
Yeah, I was thinking more about the Windows folks

nospam
there is no difference for windows folks.

lightroom 5 requires win7 or later, as does lightroom 6, which means anyone who can run lr5 can run lr6.

Sandman
Agreed, still curious though. One has already replied that he's using Windows XP, so...

nospam
one who said he isn't an adobe customer, which reinforces adobe's decision to not support xp, something they've done since version *4*.

if someone hasn't upgraded from xp, they're certainly not going to be buying new software. why waste time supporting it?
