A work of genius

For those of you who's PCs didn't come ready installed with XP, here's a compelling review that might convince you to upgrade.

I suspect XP will be around a little longer than M$ would like us to think. They've realised that the $100 OLPC Laptop and the Asus EEE might just be mildly distruptive to the market and at present are only running Linux.
What have M$ done? Tasked a team with producing a version of XP for flash-drive laptops.

Every IT professional I speak to struggles to find anything nice to say about Vista and the usual comment is "Want to simulate the Vista experience? Take half the RAM out of your PC, cut half the cables to your attached devices and de-clock your processor. Job done"

Aero is all very well, but Linux has been able to do most of that 3d malarky for 2 years on half the hardware.

Pet theory? A deal with hardware manufacturers to force hardware upgrades on people with older PC's who really don't need one when XP runs fine thank you.
