If I ever get a new computer, I'll deal with whatever Windows happens to be on it. I'm happy on XP right now, and also very low on fundage to get a new computer, SO.. XP it is for me! Bah.

If a group of people got together & did a 'Wordpress', i.e. simplified it for the normal user, Microsoft could be waving bye bye to the OS market domination. They profited from IBM's complacency all those years ago.... I was thinking this last night.

I normally jump straight on the new versions because I like a laugh and it's usually funny, but don't think I can afford to risk the problems you always get before the first (and sometimes second) service pack is out.

I.E you couldn't upgrade your XP PC to Vista & then install your old XP disc on another PC-sneaky!

The small shop where we always go for computers (no chains for us), always has said don't upgrade until you really have too. Yep, i am the same as you, no new one until new computer.
