I think XP Mode is for enterprise customers, to get them to convert
to Win7 sooner, rather than later.
Yes, I think so too.

In your case, I wouldn't. You'll just get it with new machines in due course.
Now, as to your Win98 machines - I'd upgrade those yesterday, even if
it means throwing them in the trash and buying new. By today's
standards, that was a really crappy OS. But let's not hijack this

Well, Win7 is a much better OS than XP; it's more secure, easier to work with,
and certainly much more pleasant to stare at for those who spend a lot of time
doing so. But

This can be said for any OS. I was using OS 9 far into the OS X cycle for
much the same reasons...it worked.

The exact same thing going from any OS to it's upgrade. Either you need or
want the new features that are being touted or you do not.
If you want to know what it does compared to XP or Vista, read some reviews,
you may find you want it, you may find you don't.
