I'm just wondering out of curiosity wheher anybody anywhere has managed to keep Poser 7 or Poser 8 running ? If so, then Mac or Windows. And more importantly, how ?

I'm 99% certain that Microsoft's IE10 killed Poser 8 back in Oct 2013, although it was possible to keep Poser 8 running by blocking the IE10 update, but I think even that stopped working when IE11 hit the fan.

I have no idea about Poser 7 because I never owned it.

(P.S. I've never, to this day, had any problems getting Poser 6 to run on any computer !)

The 3Dcheapskate* occasionally posts sensible stuff. Usually by accident.
And it usually uses Poser 11, with units set to inches. Except when it's using Poser 6 or PP2014, or when its units are set to PNU.
