In the 21st century, digital technology is a core element in the lives of billions. For most, the devices with which we work, play and consume media illustrate this fact.

Microsoft formally ceased its support of the decade-old operating system still used on over 446 million machines around the world. This week, a brief and personal tribute from one of its many users.
