I wonder if I could dual boot?  Absolutely the only thing wrong with 
this laptop is the monitor.  Wonder if I could put the current HD into 
the new laptop (or set it up as an external usb drive) and boot into XP 
or win7 as needed?

Also very much like Tracy's VHD suggestion.

(Thinking of alternatives, in case XP is not available from dealers)

If you mean my source code, I back that up to a physical drive, and then 
up to an internet site already.  If you mean have my tools and programs 
depend on my Internet access, when I live in one of the least reliable 
Internet accessible areas in the country (we lose Internet 5 or 6 times 
a year, minimum, sometimes for days), then..... I think not.

Yeah, I think so, too.  :-)
