I agree with you, I keep an XP computer just to run some other specialty programs.
But if someone is selling a program package to 250+ "racers" (keyboard or otherwise), it would be only be logical to have it function with contemporary operating systems. I know that Windows 8/10 has special "challenges" for software developers.
To use Garmin as an example, their software no longer runs on Windows XP. It will self uninstall if connected through the internet. This keeps them from having to design software that needs to operate through legacy and contemporary operating systems.
I guess what really gets me wound up is the whole "racers helping racers" angle. I was just gullible enough to not put the charge on an AMEX where I could positively dispute the charges!
