Microsoft quits selling XP. GRRRRRR....

[RandomGuy]

As of now, Microsoft says it will stop making any new copies of XP, and allow current copies to sell out. (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=92022146&ft=2&f=1095)

Time to stock up on licenses. I will make a bet that if you buy a new computer or two with XP on it right now, that in a year or so, you can make a tidy profit reselling them. I may sink some cash into doing just that.

If you haven't had the distinctly shitty experience of using Vista and having to relearn everything about Word, Excel and how to use a computer that you know, get ready to curse Microsoft from the rooftops when you do.

Microsoft would have sold a better product than Vista if they had packaged up a piece of shit and sold it.

I laugh when someone tells me they got Vista installed

Fuck Vista....

thats all I have to contribute.

[RandomGuy]

If Vista is the future that Microsoft is betting on, I would dump the stock.

Time to buy into Apple, even if you think it is overpriced due to reliance on iPod sales.

Time to go to Linux full time.

thats when its nice to work for IT and have a copy of XP Pro select that doesnt require a license....

Plus Dell should still be selling XP machines through 2010 and by then Im sure microsoft will come out with something better then Windows ME 2.0 (Vista).
