If Vista won’t support XP stuff, will Win 7 support both? Or, will ya have to buy new printers, etc all over again?
Actually with Windows 7 you get a virtual version of Windows XP so you can still run everything you have in that window.

I’ve been using Windows 7 since January. There is no special “window” to run XP programs in, Win 7 is backwards compatible, just like Vista was.

I heard MSFT does not include it in the lower end versions of Windows 7. MSFT will screw it up again. Just bring back XP and XP Pro.
