I'd love it if iPhone SE 2016 still got updates. I don't care about the speed, just want Voice/SMS/Music run banking and other low consumption apps. It's still my dedicated MP3 player.

we're talking about a 1C variance, I'd like to know what calibrated instrument and organization has the data for review going back a bit further than 1979.

Xojo is kind of like VB6 and allows Win/Mac/Linux + Web. I think it's free for EDU use.

It's pretty good (Tested on i5-6600 / 8GB). A small slight to MS: If this was still the balmer era, we'd be clapping "Developers" and making cool windows apps with this today. It doesn't feel right anymore: Thi
