I am getting a new Laptop.
My only concerns are my ability to install and use RSLogix 500, and RSLogix5000
I noticed that the compatibility chart only shows that Win7 is supported for Studio5000.
I really want to get Windows 8.1, because I hate to be behind the curve too far on releases.
Heck, the Laptop that I am now using has WinXP on it, and it has been unsupported for half a year now.
I think some here have been able to use RA software with Win8.1.
Do you think that I should downgrade to Win7, or go with Win8.1 and set up a VM for any software that doesn't work?
