well, that's what is out there and time marches on. i'm sure it will
settle in.

I propose to migrate to Linux (or Mac?) by the time WinXP
support ends.

Good luck with that :-) Let us all know how that works for ya :-)

Of course, secretly, I'm hoping that Vista will settle down
and be reasonable. I'm too old to make major changes to
my computing on a whim. ;-)

I agree, besides I generally don't like leaping off a cliff not knowing
if there's water down there to break my fall :-) And that can go both
ways. I've seen this whole scenario way too many times on both the PC
and the Mac side. There are times when you want to leave the machine
alone and NOT upgrade the OS. Our old Sonic Solutions system comes to
mind. It ran just fine, it did it's job... it's all it did. No reason to
upgrade at all. We left it alone and never had a problem with it.
