The hardware, which is not the main tool in his craft He draws by hand on paper and the final preparation on Photoshop is for printing After almost 10 years he needed a new laptop (things wear out with time and he could not install more RAM) but not a new Photoshop version with a different and more costly license The need to upgrade software is an artificial one and it's only needed because some platforms don't have a good backwards compatibility Windows does For many people the OS doesn't make any difference, as long as they can keep using the tools they already know There is a limit on the improvements a new software will provide if your workflow is already good as it is and you already paid for the version that works for you I know many small businesses that still use Office 2003 They can install it on new hardware on new Windows versions, it's simply not possible to do the same on Mac It's not better or worse, backwards compatibility it's a feature and as any other feature some people value it a lot, some don't care at all
