Ha Ha.  You crack a funny!

XP is twice as fast and 10 times more stable.  M$ has
to come up with something better before I make an
impossible (software supported under XP but not W7)
migration.

I still have customers that "beg" me to make them
XP machines.  (I will do W7 or XP, if they need
Windows.  Whatever they want. I refuse to do the "Home"
versions of Windows.)

My VM's:
    XP
    Vista (deleted)
    W7 Pro
    Fedora Code 16
    Fedora Core 17 Xfce Live CD
    ReactOS  (useless)
    W8 consumer preview  (Oh Boy!)

I wish more of my customers used Linux, but the
software base is not there and Wine is in Alpha stage.

By the way, when I do migrate programs from XP, I
migrate them to Wine.  I have nothing in the other
Windows that I actually use.  They are there
for me to test things for my customers.

By the way, M$ has what is called "Legacy support"
for XP users.
