Probably a year or so till Windows 7....

I'm going to wait, I've got no medium to back up, and schools almost out, ergo I have no free time to reinstate a system from scratch if it does "nuke my pc". Does it add anything particularly useful (i.e. dx10 graphics)?

All the arguments you have against Vista were once used against XP.

-Dave

And I was one of the last to finally (and grudgingly I might add) upgrade to XP. I ran 98 until 2005.

[XcOM]

man after my own heart, the only reason i don't use 98 is becuase drivers don't exist for my machine,

I had a argument with XP and drivers having to fudge them to work, some are not even xp drivers.

[chaksq]

I upgraded from 98 as soon as I could, never worked right for me. However I used Windows 2000 Professional for a long time, still do actually. It will run on almost all my machines that can't support XP (well at least the Pentium and newer, wouldn't try it on the 486s).

Obligatory linux statement.
