About Winrad, Windows and Linux, my position is that as long as I will be able to use XP, I will. But there is the possibility that one day XP will be dead, no more updates, new drivers won't run under XP, etc. etc. In such a circumstance, either M$oft will have abandoned its present obsession towards DRM, which is borderline with paranoia, and I will then "upgrade" to Vista, or, if there will be no changes from their current position, personally I will abandon altogether the Windows platform. Given that what would otherwise have been my favorite platform, OS/2, was ordered to commit suicide by IBM itself (and I know the story from the inside), what remains is Linux.... 73 Alberto I2PHD ----------------------------------------------- Mike(W5UC) & Kathy(K5MWH) wrote: > At 07:41 AM 3/6/2007, you wrote: >> unless something will >> change, I am seriously considering to abandon the Windows platform >> in favor of Linux.
