Sammy: Hello. Thank you for visiting our Verizon chat service. How can I help you with your Verizon FiOS Internet Service order?
you: hello
Sammy: Hi there.
you: i was wondering what this operating system business is about
you: the computer that connects to the internet runs neither windows nor osx
Sammy: You need to have Windows XP and higher operating system to get FiOS internet service
Sammy: On July 11, 2006, Microsoft discontinued support for these operating systems, and you will no longer be able to receive support or security updates from Microsoft. We recommend that you upgrade to a supported operating system immediately (i.e. Windows XP and/or Vista) to ensure optimal performance from your Verizon FiOS Internet Service.
