Find later. (My XP works fine.)

Resource hogging band-aid ping.

[Frantzie]

Get Windows 7 to run older programs without having to download XP Mode and Virtual PC.

[Sprite518]

Just like the Internet... Other companies have already beat Microsoft there.

[Dem Guard]

Is this worth loading on an old XP machine?

[ExTexasRedhead]

I have the same question from expert PC Freepers who are in the know.

[dinodino]

Having just spent the entire day wrestling with malware on an XP machine, I all too clearly realized why I have Apples at home. I have a message for Messrs. Gates and Ballmer:

SUCK IT.

[nagdt]

Doubtful. If it ain’t broken, don’t fix it.

[techcor]

Bump for later.

[BenKenobi]

Interesting. I’ve just spent 2 days fixing up an XP machine.

Just wait until it is considered more fun to go after Apple and Unix. They are as ridden with holes as Windows was years ago. They just don’t have a target on their back yet.

[dinodino]

No, they aren’t nearly as ridden with holes. Windows is a complete joke.

Stop looking at porn or or upgrade to Windows &. BTW did you read that story from the security expert who basically called apple users blind fools who are simply a big dumb unwitting populace on their security needs? Anyways it was an interesting read.

[aft_lizard]

Umm yes they are. 90% of security experts agree, in security competitions it is Apple that always falls first.

I've heard that for a decade now, still waiting...

It’s still the “in” thing. Since it will probably remain the “in” thing until Microsoft falls, you might be safe in your lifetime.
