Today, Windows Server 2008 and 2008 R2 (based on Windows Vista and 7) finally, truly reach end of support.

Windows Vista and Server 2008 is the longest supported version of Windows, at 19 years. Behind it is Windows 😜 at 17 years, and Windows for Workgroups 3.11 at 16 years.

Hi old school video nerds:
I use (PAL) analogue+"obselete" equipment such as video mixers, amiga, tube+dv cameras, whatevers lying around to make music videos.

I capture video with a ADVC 300 with firewire on a win 7 pc. It's stable. I have tried various USB2+3 capture cards/HDMI converters Elgato capture boxes on win10 and found them glitchy/lower quality/framedropping etc

Is there anything modern that has the quality and stability to capture composite video that I can use with a new laptop (usb3 I guess) before I continue capturing video with my old method? I did see some Roland stuff like the VR4HD captured n streamed composite but its a bit pricey and only has one composite input and loads of HDMI ones which I don't need.

Also sadly my Fairlight CVI video synth broke last year and I haven't found anyone with the expertise to fix it...It's niche but no harm in asking if there's anyone who knows something bout em
thanks for your elp'

I've just been asked to upgrade 2 old PCs (Windows 7) to Linux. Which distro would you recommend for beginners? I'm currently hesitating between Mint, Zorin OS and Fedora...Or maybe Ubuntu?
