I tell people if you are happy with XP don't waste the money upgrading to Windows 7.

I setup a dual boot with Vista in one partition and Windows 7 RC1 in another. Also have a couple of Linux distributions in those partitions also. It all works together.

I agree. I have two XP machines, one only 2 weeks old. But sometime in the future XP won't be supported and more people will think about migrating. This could help. I've saved it as a PDF file (available from TechRepublic) because I get inquiries from friends about PC issues.

I’m still running XP, but I was all set to get the $30 Windows 7 (offered if you have a .edu email address), but apparently, it’s only those upgrading from Vista. Bummer....
