The moment I have deaded has arrived -- RootsMagic 8.0 has been
released, and won't run on my Windows XP computer.

It's only a matter of time before the people at FamilySearch change
their API, and then I will no longer be able to connect, and that is
where I do most of my genealogy these days.

So does anyone know of another genealogy program that runs on Windows
XP and connects to FamilySearch?

You may try Ancestral Quest. I don't know whether that really runs on XP, but IMO it's the best alternative to RM, so you may give it a try.
