I do not understand. If Microsoft ends OEM and shrinkwrapped sales of
Windows XP, how does that force users to switch to Vista. Users of XP
already have the software - why would they want another set.

There is no reason to get excited about OS phaseouts. They are
inevitable, but you do have the luxury of waiting - unless of course
you are one of those who waits in line at Best Buy each time software
makers release a new version.

If you want an OS that doesn't run as much software then go with Apple
or Linux. Otherwise just hang in there with your XP.

What a joke. Unless you still game on a computer, or use some
old-fashioned 3rd party connected device, there is absolutely no
advantage to using Windows. It is crap.
