also, doesn’t windows 7 uliminate includes a copy of winxp with it? Some sort of winxp emulator
Also, the xp emulator only works in low resolution (16 bit colors, not 32 or true color) and it lags so badly(choppy) I found the emulator to be completely unusable and another waste of money. So I developed a dual boot system: xp for functionality - if I actually need to accomplish any work, and w7 to continue experimenting with. Sorry this doesn't answer security questions. 7 is just not as functional as xp.
