Alltel has announced today that they are no longer supporting dial-up or high-speed internet users who have computers running Windows 98, 98SE, or ME. This shouldn’t be a problem for most people. For those who have these operating systems, it is just one more reason to upgrade! Here is an excerpt from the Alltel email:

Effective Tuesday, July 11, 2006, Windows 98, 98SE and ME will no longer be supported by Microsoft. Due to the “end-of-life” status of these operating systems, Alltel will make changes to our minimum PC requirements for Broadband and Dial-Up services. We will continue to provide “best effort” support of existing customers who have these OSs. Also, we will not deny service if a potential customer has one of these systems. However, we do ask that you be aware that our mutual customers may need to upgrade to a newer OS if they experience problems with their service as a result of their older software. Please click here for the updated requirements.

If you frequent the Schrock Innovations Computer Repair website you may have noticed a new graphic on the bottom left corner of all of our pages. This is a tool provided free of charge by AltaVista that will allow you to instantly translate any page on the Schrock Innovations website into 8 different languages!

Since the launch of the Do It Yourself Computer Repair section of our website, we have been getting an ever increasing number of visitors from outside the United States. While our primary concern is always our local Nebraska customers, people outside of Nebraska and outside of the US also have computers and need help too.
