have been amazed at the stability, compatibility and usability amongst
many other things. I think it really shows what a community can do if
they pull together - they can develop an operating system tha

Hi everyone,
As you may or may not be aware, XP will no longer be sold quite soon -
you won't be able to buy an XP computer after June, and retail copies
won't be sold after next January [1], meaning Vista is the 'only' choice
