Willing to learn? I can show you how to use Amazon S3 storge with WinSCP and auto backup with a batch file and Task Scheduler. Then I can show you how to make Ghirardelli chocolate chip cookies. LOL!

Seriously, S3 is super cheap, it's pay as you go. I pay around ~$2.90 right now for around 35 GB I have there. And since it's nothing but push and not so much pull you won't be charged that much. I can do this with WinSCP and BunnyCDN as well. They're pricing is a little asinine if you ask me. Cheap, but stupid.

I might do a write up on my website one day here soon.

How about offering paid support and upgrades for windows 7 users. Why does chrome want to be the one that forces us to upgrade from a stable system that never breaks down.

At least we have Firefox (until 2024) and Mypal. There's also a Windows 7 extended kernel like there is with Windows Vista.

(an extended kernel tricks the OS into thinking its a later build; ex. vista extended kernal turns its 6.0 NT build into 6.1 and changes the OS build from 6002 to 7601, which makes modern firefox and stuff work on it)
