The world is filled with "I go back farther than you" folks, just as it 
is filled with comedians. :-))

In all seriousness, thanks for asking ... only Elecraft would have 
posted such a question before just changing, usually without notice. 
Not a problem for me, XP and W7 only here [not counting all the Android 
stuff in the pockets of my cargo shorts and my wife's purse].

There *are* contesters still using TR-Log under MS-DOS so it's certainly 
possible that someone is still using W98.  Some vendors will archive the 
latest copy of the obsolete SW and make it available to users for a 
period of time.  No more updates or support, so new K-stuff 
hardware/firmware that might require updated utilities won't be 
available to those users, but it does give them a "grace period" before 
they need to upgrade their platform[s].

Again, thanks for asking.
