my customer base is low-scale domestic, and how do you think MY average 
Joe is gonna respond when I say "you really should cough up £100 for xp, 
your dusty old win-98 OS isn't supported any more", when a: their 
machines are £50 p3 450's with 4mb vram, 64-128mb ram, and b: they only 
use them to play solitaire and send aol mails :) My income from cleaning 
PC's (ie removing malware of any kind) has overtaken my income from 
repairs (I'm still poor somehow, though <g>). And Linux is simply too 
complex for my level of customer, even at the price (free). Vista's 
gonna be a big flat dud around here, probably even *I* won't bother with 
it for it's 1st 2 years
