Well, well, look at that... now people who've religiously stuck to XP for the last 5,000 aeons have no reason not to upgrade to Windows 7 now.

Downloading now. Thanks.

Good find, I thought 7 would just do what Vista did with using a little check mark.

I suppose there's not much point in installing it now for me though, still need to wait on the copies to get to mah house.

...well those who game on XP may want to stick with the regular XP install, virtual machines can't render 3D games.

Thei irony is on the desktop (e5200) I can't run XP mode, but I can on my 5 years old laptop based on Athlon 64 Clawhammer.
