lol i aint that young. but it takes me a while to move on from certain software, especially an os. i rocked windows 2000 professional til like 2005 lol. i finally moved on from xp last year i didnt hardcore play around with computers til 98 when i first learned how to build them. i remember when having 16mb of ram was considered alot. its amazing how far computing has come.

VLC has replaced media player classic and Winamp for me.

Flash get isn't all that necessary if you use downloadthemall, basically the same shit.

Ulead gif creator is still good now that gifs are making a comeback
 
peace


haaaaSHEEEeeeeeeeeeeiiiiit....
Hardware
My lil cuzzo bragged to one of his people on how still rock the Sony19 screen from the early part of the millennium when HD 1st became a thing and b4 flat screens were everywhere and used as comp screens.
My desktop setup is pre blue ray/wifi, Bluetooth and all of that & I don't give a fuck.


Classic Media Player uses much less ram then all the others I have, plus its cued up crazy so multiples of them can be on the screen @ the same time.
While I typed this, the CC update screen just popped up haha

RealPlayer is how uToob videos get converted to mp3 but it s starting to act up now.

I stopped all of that DVD burning software shit once wifi blue ray players, clouds and smartphones became available. I think my dvd works but the CD drive won't eject haha but still use Nero for the Wave Lab to record & make mp3s
HJsplit is on this bitch somewhere too.
WinRAR always
Winamp is also cued the fuck up so I have to track down that old school skin with the Reel2Reel when someone yrs ago loaded that huge skin bundle.
 
Harvard Graphics
DBase IV
Word Perfect 5.1

Imma call BS on these 3. And you forgot Lotus 123. Ain't no way you still using these joints :lol:

I was a beast on Harvard Graphics back in days with the Plotter. Learned to Type on Word Perfect 5.0, 5.1 and dBase III is what I learned SQL against. Thanks for the memories!
 
I tend to stick with software until there's something clearly better to replace it.

For me 7zip is just as good as winrar, without the constant requests to send in money.
vlc replaced just about every video player that wasn't already built into windoze.
winamp had it's day, but honestly I stream most of my music from my local cloud thru google play or chromecast.

MS Paint is probably the oldest program I use on a regular basis whenever I need to do a quick resisze or crop without loading up picasso or photoshop.

I kinda wish I had a copy of Corel Draw for vector graphic manipulation. Never got used to Illustrator

Edit: I still use imgburn and convertXtoDVD latest versions for the occasional DVD for older family members
 
quickpar
windows 7
CDisplay 1.8
pop-up stopper free edition
revo uninstaller 2.0.0
spybot search & destroy
tuneup utilities 2011
 
Amongst others, I still use everyday:

Honorary mention to:
MusicMatch (don't have it any more but I miss it)
RealPlayer (don't have it any more but I don't miss it)

That MusicMatch was nice. It would auto mix your songs and auto title labels. One of the first programs I actually bought!

Been using these the longest:
Firefox
JetAudio
Microsoft Digital Image(Got discontinued back in 07. Keep a couple of copies zipped up)
WinRar
Internet Download Manager
Flashget/Flashgot

my favorite convertx is 4. i couldnt get into 5 and 6 is ok. i keep 6 on hand in case i wanna really customize the disc but otherwise 4 is the perfect version to me. any time i gotta do a fresh install imgburn is always one of the first to get reinstalled. i used to use alcohol 120 until imgburn was suggested to me. havent looked back since. when i make discs i like convertx to make an iso image so i can check it before i burn it. then imgburn takes care of that when its all good. for the other person that mentioned nero, the only thing i use that for is making cd's but for some reason i fell back to ashampoo for that. all my favorite apps are in a folder on my external hard drive so i dont have to keep searching for it when i need it.
 
Yep winrar, and before that winzip, and ConvertXtoDVD stay essential everyday use. As well as Paint and Office2007
