@Tavakoli Laminar has always gone through things at their own pace regardless of what microsoft does. Xp was born out of the disappointment of microsoft's sim and has done its own thing since, each having their own priorities and approaches to things. the fact that even though microsoft has a the majority of the sim community, xp still has a large following even after all the different sims over the years and update means that xp has things that people still want.
