Those XP machines can download an older version of Chrome if it ever comes to that. And if Google Chrome no longer provides support I'm sure Chromium will. XP is 10 years old. It's remarkable that Google does still support it (unlike Microsoft supporting their own software) so let's praise them on that.

Where do you download older versions of Chrome, please? I uninstalled Chrome 27 completely because it was unusable (slow, pale blue screens, crashy etc) on XP but Chrome 25 worked fine....

PS XP is 12 years old.

Many thanks! A few too many old versions, really ;-)

That older version wouldn't get security updates. And if it were to get them, but no new features, future web devs would forever be stuck with that old legacy webgl ;-)

But you are right that they should be praised for the past work.
