Got this story last week from my Aunt/SOC customer. With her permission I have posted it here.

Hi Phyllis,
Well the complication this year was that we had to replace both our home desktop and our lap top with new computers with windows 7. (We got awful virus' in both of them.) Then, I assumed that I could just install my photoshop elements 4.0 and my camera picture program that's also at least 5 years old. But Windows 7 doesn't work like XP. And my photo shop is 4.0. I went on line and got info on how to put RUN in the directory since it doesn't come on Windows 7. I was able to install RUN but the computer does not recognize either my old camera program or old photoshop CD program. So I go on google again and they talk about downloading a vista program that translates both and gets your old programs up on windows 7. That was too much info that goes over my head. In the meantime, I had copied all my addresses on my old PC using WordPerfect. Now I can't find any of those documents on my new computer with the new Word and I can't pull up my addresses for Christmas cards.
So I gave up on pictures, and some addresses, but because I've got significant addresses on my Send Out Cards program and a few more in my regular address book, I made a nice 2 page card for under a $1.00 and I'm happy. So Thanks to the Send Out Cards program. Now I'll make it through the holidays.

Now if only I had told her to try to get on the system at 6am!! Please bear with the slowness of the system during this month... This week they expect to have a 500,000 card day!! That's incredible! And STILL only a handful of people know about this!
