What are you drinking there Graham;)

I remember when the big bad operating system was XP - now it is Vista . When the next one comes out we'll have the same crowd saying they're sticking with Vista . Some folks don't like change .

576657 2007-08-16 07:08:00 It will be interesting to see how many people move from XP to Vista in the time it takes for Windows 7 (Vienna) to come out 2-3+ years from now. winmacguy (3367)

Or making the jump from XP to Windows 7 (Vienna) if they think it is worth it or just because they have waited long enough .

576660 2007-08-16 10:06:00 I will switch to vista when most the issues are sorted & it won't break the bank to have a computer that can run it well - same thing I did with XP. Greven (91)

12 months or more should do it then although by then all the talk will have turn to Windows 7 aka Vienna and what they are sticking in (copying from Leopard) or pulling out of it.

576662 2007-08-16 20:58:00 I for one will not go to Vista. When Win XP expires in 5 years or so it will be Linux or MAC. Those 24" MACs look quite appealing.. paulw (1826)

They are following the design of the iPhone and use Aluminum so they are recyclable.
Apparently a lot of US corporate managers are looking at Macs as well.
