I think I'll wait and putt along on XP for a while. It's not perfect, but it ain't bad.
Of the three computers that I use on a regular basis, two have XP and one has Win 2K. I prefer the latter and will continue to use it as long as possible. Cleaner, faster, and less crash-prone. Can't remember the last time I was force to reboot with it. XP, on the other hand, crashes on me at least once a month.

XP crashed maybe half a dozen times on me in the past 5 years. Do you have adequate spyware protection, do you have a regularly scheduled AV & AS scan programed. It might be hardware related. Cerially, it's not that bad of an OS.
Now VISTA OTOH, sounds like a 3lb sack, holding 5lbs!

If your XP is crashing once a month, then something is wrong somewhere. That is not normal operation, and shouldn't be tolerated as such.
