They should come up with “Old Fart Windows”. I want to surf the web, write letters and get email. I don’t need anything else. And I don’t get very many emails.

If you only do web surfing, letter composition and email you can switch to Linux with virtually zero learning curve. For example, install Linux Mint and you'll get 30 or so applications to start and be able to select from about 40,000 more if you want to add any of them.

I'm pulling my XP computers off the internet and using 7 and Linux where I have to be connected. As for the office type tasks, I should be 100% Linux by the end of the year with only a few exceptions wheresome needed applications are only Windows and won't run under Wine.

Thanks for the info. Do you remove XP from you hard drive? Or just download Linux and let XP remain idle. I’m very dumb when it comes to computers.
