hi peeps, what people tend to forget is that when XP was launched it was garbage as well. full of holes and just generally.. well, poo!
Took till service pk 2 to really fix it. Vista is gonna take a few service packs and a heap load of trial and error to get right. As my Ol' man said the other day after playing about on his new acer lappie.. why did they bother?
Bloody good question if you ask me. XP looks better, runs better, does everything you can possibly want it to do. You want more ram run the 64 bit edtn, but cant really see why youd need that.
Gamers should be well happy with a top end pc running xp home with decent g/card and ram
Peeps doin music or serious photography ought to be doin that stuff on a mac, lets be honest, its what theyre best at

Im gonna stick to my XP Pro SP2 (sod sp3, dont need it) till it dies then ill reinstall on something i can get xp drivers for.. does everything i need n more
ttfn
A
