I guess you haven't tried Windows 7. Windows XP sucks compared to Windows 7. I think since the upgrade for Windows 7 is going to be $49 for the home version upgrade and $99 for the Pro upgrade people will buy it. More people also will buy new computers with Windows 7 on it instead of asking for XP. I hate going back to XP after using 7, even when I go to a friends house that uses Vista I give a groan because I miss features in 7 that Vista doesn't have.
