"In fairness, we can't really blame Microsoft for getting rid of XP. If they didn't, it would mean virtual ruin for an almost ten billion dollar investment. Anyone would do the same thing in their shoes."

Ah, the old "lets throw good money after bad" attitude. Let's see, Microsoft can stop shipping XP and force people to Vista driving more customers to Apple and Linux. Or, we could say, you know what, our customers say they don't like Vista and want to stay with XP...how about we listen to them and either scrap Vista or fix it. Microsoft has forgotten the top rule of any business...the customer comes first.
