Well no it didn't load for me but then I don't have the latest PC equipment
being someone who is not going to buy new equipment just to keep up with
the Joneses. My desktop PC is an XP machine because it enables me to run
SIAM railway simulator which will not run on anything more modern than
Win7. SIAM won't run on this laptop Win10 hence my use of XP which I find
to be a stable programme and does everything I require on a computer. I
haven't tried downloading it yet, that might solve the problem. It
probably works on my phone but the phone and I have a love/hate
relationship with technology. I have worked out how to use the camera
though. :-)
