I run Win7 on my primary computer, and may be going to Win8.1 on a new device I'm having built, but have maintained XP on the dedicated music server. I've seen no reason to change as it's working fine. I don't do XP upgrades on it anyway, so won't miss the updates no longer coming from Microsoft.
However, if I were running LMS on my primary computer, I'd definitely go to 7 or 8.1. Too many of the newer applications need the newer Windows, and it's just better for many purposes, although LMS is one of the apps that don't seem to care. It's always a pain to upgrade, and especially to get a new computer. I'm about to have to reinstall a great many legacy apps on a new device, but fortunately LMS and my primary music library aren't among the things I'll have to do -- they are on their own computer. R.
