Hi Tom.

I was probably thinking of vista, since I do know when getting my desktop repared in 2008 I very much didn't want a machine with newer windows, which was one other advantage of going to a local custom manufacturer since all the main shops like Pc world were the slaves of microsoft and ramming newer versions down people's throats.

Well I have said under what circumstances I'll upgrade. Yes, I can run xp in a virtual machine and I am glad there is that option, but if the newer os doesn't actually bennifit me, well why have the hassle?

to be honest I can understand that someone like yourself who cares about all the technical stuff is interested in the newer os, but I am getting slightly irritated with having the position I'm in missrepresented or missunderstoo. I do not think xp is the best thing there ever will be, neither do I reffuse to upgrade, I merely don't see the point at the moment, that is all, and I fully expect in the future that this will change when a new os actually make a practical difference that is worth the hassle.

That is another reason I spent time playing with Windows 7 and I'd like to try mac and windows 8 in the same way, although at this point in time I have a sneaking suspicion that it will be a hardware not a software change such as touch screen control or something like.

Beware the grue!

Dark.
