Ahhhh, ok Danny. :-) It still takes A LONG time to make, try-out, bug-out, and release ANY new OS. We still think, and read (but moreso *BELIEVE *after hubby seeing 30+ yrs of any OS released) that the next Windows OS still will not be released until late January of 2010.
You might want to consider getting a new system more sooner rather than later anyway, Quadius, or you will be waiting a long time. Best to ya all!
