(Footers Larry!) We all have been saying that for years and yet we still use a PC (hee hee). I may have moved to a Mac or Linux long ago if they only worked for ALL of my programs/software, (and drivers too for Linux). -Clint God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://www.OrpheusComputing.com http://www.ComputersCustomBuilt.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "LarryB" If M$ keeps this up it will drive many of us to Mac's.

I did it, and even recommended a friend to do it, to see if we both see a difference, neither of us can. I see no reason, really, why Microsoft created a new service pack, except to keep us XP lovers from complaining, or afraid that XP would be gone forever. Well, in 2010, it will be. So, prepare yourselves for either Vista or Windows 7, whichever you will prefer by then. For me, I think that thy should just keep Windows XP, and do away with any more upgrades. It is too time-consuming for us PC techs to have to learn another operating system, as soon as the other becomes obsolete. Quoting LarryB: Good Grief Clint, thank god your business runs itself ha as you have obiviously spent gads of time doing this. (or maybe you just need some sleep finally.) Hats off to you my man and THANKS from all of us.
