Re: New Windows next year ?
As long as I'm not forced because XP is not working anymore, I'm staying with XP.
Re: New Windows next year ?
Me too,
I have them for 9 months now, so no point in upgrading :)
They are so good comparing to my long experience with WinME I will hardly change them soon :)
I just wonder what they could add / change, since they are just Service Packing Vistas ??
The message about new Win looked almost like hoax to me.

Maybe Microsoft are admitting that Vista is crap. :D
Re: New Windows next year ?
Well,
they did so much money with Vista (you remember: all PC was/are forced to be sold with Vista included).
They liked the game.
They will try to do it again.

Re: New Windows next year ?
Eros, I thought that all the computer manufactures turn round to MS and said "forget it, we prefer XP" so MS backed down which is why I can still buy new computers with XP pro or vista machine which has a free "down grade" to XP.
Re: New Windows next year ?
Yes, that's true but only to not have too much claims from customers and only because MS admitted that Vista had many drivers problems/incompatible.
Latest HP business PC laptop (and others) come out with both Vista and XP and you can choose which one to install.
Re: New Windows next year ?
Thats interesting, I have avoided the Vista/XP machines but that may make me rethink. I research the spec and price for the computers we supply to customers at my workplace so If I get to choose what to install thats a bonus in my eyes.
Do you know if you choose to install Xp then decide to change it to Vista after sometime whether it will let you?
I suppose they supply 2 product keys, 1 XP, 1 Vista so there is no reason it wouldnt work.
Re: New Windows next year ?
They call them Windows 7
hmm Wista is realy big crap
I stay on XP
Re: New Windows next year ?
When I got my computer it came with XP, but Vista was possible, but if I changed my mind, I could not go back to XP from the way I understood it.
The tech vidcasts I watch over and over have said how long time Microsoft Fan boy types are switching back from Vista to XP. I think the quicker MS can put Vista out of the spotlight the better for them. Windows 7, just has a friendly feel to it, like the real Windows, I thought clever naming. I thought Vista was a terrible product name and I guess the name matches the product :)
