Upgrade question

Filepro 5.0.5 5 license

Open server 5.0.5

I am a filepro user and not a programmer. I have been using filepro sense 
the Tandy 6000 days. Over the years I have managed to write an open order 
billing system that has been serving my business well for almost 30 years. I 
am retiring and turning the business over to my sons and would like to 
upgrade the programs and hardware so that it might run for another 20 or 30 
years. I know that is asking a lot but these programs have served me well 
and I expect they will continue to do so.

To that end I have ordered a new server and will upgrade filepro. My 
question to you is this. Do I stay with Open server 5, upgrade to 6 or go to 
some other operating system? Is open server 6 as stable as 5? There is no 
filepro support in the Minneapolis area and little open server support. I 
expect this can be done remotely should the need arise. I would appreciate 
your comments. I am trying to avoid any surprises.



Thanks

Roger
