Well, it's about a year ago that I reported on here that the college  work at had decided not to replace XP with "the new ME" for the foreseeable future.  Although we are now on Office 2007, XP is still the operating system and, according to one of the techies who I was talking to last week, will remain so for quite a while yet.

That reminds me.  One of my brothers bought a new PC (with Vista installed) last year and almost immediately decided to format and replace it with XP once the 12 months warrenty had expired.  I had better give him a call and see if he is ready because I think the 12 months will be up about now.

CU later.
