Steve, Only you - as the computer user - can make that decision. But, I can say that I personally will NOT upgrade to a VISTA o/s computer anytime soon... I will just pray that my XP computer hangs in there!! But, you can (with the info out there) make a decision on your own about any upgrade in computers.

They think it is either a memory or motherboard issue. In any event, I am getting a new one. Fortunately, my data is backed up and I run the program off of a laptop. Actually two back-ups, one to the other computer and an external HD. So, I'm not crying. However, I am inclined to upgrade from W2K to XP vs. Vista. I can still get a computer built locally with XP. I have seen too much about Vista, especially in terms of DXBase issues, to make me want to risk it. I am NOT a computer enthusiast nor an intuitive Windows user. Just ask W4DUP, Sandy. :))))) Am I making the right decision???????
