Windows NT; The End of an Era
|
Beginning with release 1.103.10.0, WinCable will no longer support Windows NT platforms. This first 32 bit operating system introduced in 1993 has been a work horse for many organizations. It then became the basis for Windows 2000 and XP. Microsoft stopped supporting NT about 5-6 years ago but we are still seeing some workstations running this operating system. While the general rule of thumb indicates a 3-5 year life cycle for a server, there are SuperControllers and ARUs in the field that have been operating for over 8 years! How's that for stability??? 
Current SuperControllers and ARUs are going out on Windows XP Pro workstations. Enterprise SuperControllers are available on Windows 2008 server operating systems. Keep reading these newsletters for hardware platform updates. |
