For what it's worth, I'm in a similar boat. Three of my four computers are XP home. I need a computer for business purposes and can't afford to replace three computers.

I think I'm going to take all sensitive data off two of the three computers and use them solely for surfing the net while I'm watching movies.

Then, I'm going to order a budget Dell computer for $350 that has Windows 7 as its OS. Win 7 is good for another several years, in terms of MS support. After I reformat the fourth computer, I guess I'll give it to my mother in law who only uses a computer to play solitare.

That’s a good idea. I’ll put that in my alternatives. Thanks.
