  1. one “gotcha” about using this tool for older computers. You will need to get the program to the old computer, and Windows obligingly asks if you want to create a copy you can run on the old computer. However it won’t burn the program in a CD!!

    If you buy a new computer and it doesn’t have a floppy then you can use a USB keychain drive (the removable ones that plug into a USB port) to move the program to the old computer.
