Anyone with hearing loss would do well to continue with annual
hearing evaluations.

My audiologist uses some Windows based software to access
the hearing aids,

I'm sorry to hear that. Pity they couldn't have used a
less mediocre platform.

Given that the operating system would have absolutely no bearing on the
quality of the software, the operation of it, or the results, why ?


Or must serious applications only be used by iDiots or Lidiots ?

Seeing your comment about Bose in this thread, and the
complaint about Bose phoning home, I wonder what you think about
Billyware phoning home? You know it does don't you.

That's the bearing on the quality of the OS.



No. That's the bearing of OS-snob elitists who feel the need to attemp
tomake their own candle burn brighter by (attempting to) blowing out the
candles of others.

My reference to Bose was WRT their bull**** marketing and hype.


Yet the commebt was about their software phoning home.
Something that Billyware does. Something that does nothing to
improve the the working of the product, but is part of the
bull**** marketing and hype.


Fortunately many of those who actually use Windows know you can easily
stop this. Apple does far more objectionable things IMO, but neither is
in the same league as Google and Facebook, or our own governments for
that matter. :-(
