Hi Ian,
I realize that there are many approaches to move the application from the customer VM to a Cloud server or a terminal service. But, I am in my late 60s and have no energy, desire, and skills to learn new technologies.
I simply am ready to accept that the next step is a retirement. When the last customer informs me that they decided to switch to a different program, I won't even try to convince them to stay (this, btw, happens every month).
I have many hobbies and won't worry about being bored.
Happy 2023!
Thank you.
