From: Gazwad on 28 May 2010 19:47 How many people are still using XP as their main operating system? How many people need to hang onto XP because Vista or 7 are not an option for some reason? What are those reasons? Gazwad -- Gritz is,- Smelling diseased body parts and lemon sauce accompanied with foul cadaver foreskins accentuated with piggish raven belly and garden worm vomit topping, cooked in a bubbling double boiler with a slew of rare cooked rutabaga, dried assortment of conch, bone marrow gravy, a side of foetal water turkey skin and a stein of clotted scallop puree.

Like: I went from dos/win3.11 for workgroups to xp(pro). Next one might be the successor of win7. Additional advise: Wait two years past the introduction date. That will save you from an awfull lot of bugs, M$ uses you as beta tester without warning you..

And some other stuff. -- Gritz is,- Beat-up roadkill giblet and marten intestine garnish with sizzled tapeworm vein, arranged in a chilled bucket brimming with dull scraps of kidney and snail with scraps of seaweed in offensive polluted sludge, a side of brussel sprout and a glass of rancid sea slug juice.

It's not my *main* operating system -- that would be Linux -- but XP is the version of Windows I use. > How many people need to hang onto XP because Vista or 7 are not an option > for some reason? "Need to"? Not I. "Do so because my Windows games don't like running on non-Windows OS's?" Yeah, that's it. > What are those reasons? I hate Vista and Windows 7. Reason enough IMO. (Also, my computers are way down on the low end of the hardware list, and I'm not about to buy a new computer just so I can buy *yet another* version of Windows that I don't need.) -- Remember: opinions are worthless. |
