Nothing wrong with that, either. I remember when XP came out... It was Windows 2000 (Which is, in my opinion, Microsoft's greatest OS release) which was being praised then. Most people could not find enough things in XP to warrant the upgrade. Also, there were some XP drivers as well. Finally, when SP2 came out, people started to move over (although I remember all the ranting about the built-in firewall causing problems as well).
So, now that we're all used to XP, moving to vista seems "unnecessary". But, it will end up happening, I'm sure. It has been what history dictates we do, so we probably will. As for my "Oh yes we can" comment, it was meant to be tongue-in-cheek. --Matt Ross ----- Original Message ----- From: Christopher J.
