Come to think of it, they are still offering XP on Inspiron laptops, as well. I just quoted one last week. Dell seems smart enough to realize that a lot of IT people will continue to purchase XP at least until SP1 for Vista is released and run in the field for a while. We have yet to quote or sell a Vista machine. _________________________________________________________________ KX-T Mailing list --- http://kxthelp.com/ Subscription changes: http://kxthelp.com/mailman/listinfo/kxt
