My father still updates his website with Frontpage (he had a recent 6 month outage because he inadvertently deleted the Windows XP vmdk on his system, but I recovered that for him recently.) He’s 75, and isn’t interested in converting or learning anything new at this stage.
The funny thing is for years his home-made site was the top google hit if you searched for “hill's criteria” (See Hill's criteria of causation). His site is http://drabruzzi.com/ http://drabruzzi.com/
- Santosh83 7y agoHmm, how do you manage to acquire a legal of copy of Frontpage (even Express) these days for your dad?
- Macha 7y agoWas FrontPage ever sold digitally? I wouldn't be surprised if my parents still had their disc copies of Office 95-XP (some even legal thanks to PC bundle deals).
- nonamenoslogan 7y agoThe later versions "Sharepoint Designer" are free from Microsoft and still available on their downloads page. Frontpage may be old enough to consider it 'abandonware,' a quick Google for "free frontpage" has a lot of downloads including one from Kean.edu with an embedded key.
- abruzzi 7y agoHe still has the install disk! Though my repair was to pull the vmdk off his old, broken laptop to get him working again.
