Hi

You never lose by loving. You always lose by holding back.

I don’t know what the key to success is, but the key ...

        I love XP.XP should continue because of its popularity,

        ,compatibility,and adaptability.Computarists

        have a special liking and preference for this OS[XP]

        because of its simplicity .Both WIN98 and XP are jems of

        MS and they should not think of discontinuing it.

          Microsoft is not in business to make good software. Microsoft is in business to make money.

          Vista will make more money for Microsoft than XP, hence Vista is what everybody must have.

          Shut up and stop whining.

            Same old dumb stuff.

            1)Nobody's making anybody upgrade. MS dropping support doesn't make it stop working. And they're supporting through '09 already anyway. Same cycle as every other release, support is dependent on the actual number of machines in the wild. If they get to the cutoff date and there are 3 million XP machines still surfing, support will continue, you can bet your socks.

            2)Vista rocks. Get over it. No, don't even think about putting it on a machine with less than 2G RAM. But ALSO, don't bother putting Vista32-bit on a machine with more than 3.5G RAM.

            3)Same bashing and whining as when '98 and XP came along. '98 got slammed cuz everybody loved '95. Then XP got slammed cuz everybody loved '98 so much!?

            Lather, rinse, repeat.

            And actually, quackpot, MS IS in the business of making good software. If somebody were doing it better, they'd be working for MS right now!
