Well, actually, I just booted my computer from the other hard drive with
the XP install, followed the simple instructions for pointing
thunderbird to the correct location of mail files, and am sending this
from XP. I will say this computer is MUCH faster on XP than Vista.

yea, I already have xp install disks, in fact, I have xp running on a
seperate hard drive on this computer. REally, the problem is I need to
get my mail an everything moved over from the vista install, which
luther sent me the instructions, I just have not done it yet. Then,
there is the fact that I bought that technet subscription but dont
really need it, but might as well use it since I have it so though about
upgrading my version of XP, and also downloading some office installs
and such.

I heard if you called M$ they would give you XP code such that you could
down grade. However you have to already have XP install disks.

I would rather use XP, but this new computer I have had for a while
came with Vista, and its very difficult to go back to xp on it.

i
have some vendors who have systems of communicating with their

want to

don't
want to wait on hold for 20 minutes, i have to run MS. (no, wonko, your
wine emulation/virtualizations don't really work). sometimes you are
just
stuck.
but kleb makes no sense at all.
1. what does he need run that can't be run off a non-ms OS?
2. what does he need to run that can't be run on XP but only on Vista?
as downloading porn and emails does not require any microsoft product at
all. his motivation is a mystery. we i in such an enviable position,
i'd
be
microsoft free forever (and i've even tried to do that, but just
couldn't
because of business requirements)

Anybody know anything about the Enterprise version? Looks like it has
multiple activations, but wondered if anybody has used it, what
features
it
has etc.
