We gather together on the first rather than the seventh day of the week because redemption is even a greater work than creation and more worthy of commemoration and because the rest which followed creation is far outdone by the rest which ensues upon the completion of redemption. Like the Apostles, we meet on the first day of the week and hope that Jesus may stand in our midst and say, “Peace be unto you.” Our Lord has lifted the Sabbath from the old and rusty hinges where on the law had placed it long before and set it on the new golden hinges which His love has fashioned. He has placed our rest day not at the end of a week of toil but at the beginning of the rest which remains for the people of God. Every first day of the week we should meditate on the rising of our Lord and seek to enter into the fellowship with Him in His risen life.
C.H. Spurgeon

Free upgrade to Windows 10 presents a Catch 22 for me

Greetings,

With the recent posts ref free upgrade to Windows10 it started me to thinking. I have a machine that would probably benefit from this upgrade as it is presently running Vista. The main thing about this machine is Photoshop CS6 and a Epson scanner. The scanner is long in the tooth but it is a very good scanner (Epson Perfection 1640su Photo) and I don't plan on buying a new one.
I contacted Epson and sad to say this scanner's software will not be able to handle a 64 bit operating system. They did advise, however, that a company at Hamrick.com has software that would make the scanner compatible with Windows 10. They have a "standard" version for $60 and a "pro" version for about $100.
So while the Windows 10 upgrade wouldn't cost me anything the new scanner software would, therefore the Catch 22  ;-(
Long and short, if I want to run the scanner on a 64 bit operating system like Windows 10, then I will need to cough up $60 to $100.
Windows 10 doesn't seem so "free" any more. Life's little problems.
Regards,
Buck
