All XP, skipping Vista (I have one Vista laptop for testing VPN issues) will 
probably consider 7 once SP1 is worked out.

Subject: Windows 7 edition comparison

With the impending move of the Windows world to version 7, I thought it
would be prudent for the list to discuss this. In addition, most of us
would use a Windows desktop, in one form or other, on a personal system
to access and/or administer corporate servers/networks.

Off the top of my head, questions would be (but not limited to):

. Staying with XP?
   Why / until when

. Staying with Vista? ;-)
   Ummmm...

. Recommendations to management/clients regarding upgrading?

. 32 or 64 bit?

. Which edition of se7en (as my 13 year old calls it)
   Microsoft is not very helpful here:

This is better:
