Hi AlexanderI believe you can still get a machine running XP, but they are now harder to come by due to the hype of selling Vista.
I believe Dell sell machines with XP if you specify you want it, but you'll be hard pushed to find one in a High Street store now.

Hi all,Before I get to the point of this message, I wish to make it clear to the moderators of the list that my references in later paragraphs to specific companies with regard to software, is purely related to my question.I currently run Supernova which I purchased from Dolphin Computer Access Ltd on a laptop I purchased from a different company some time earlier. I have now got to a position where I wish to purchase a desktop computer, however, when I contacted Dolphin about obtaining one from them, I was told that the computers they sell now come with vista, (hence my other message regarding Vista).My question is, as I said in the subject line, I thought XP machines were still available, am I Wrong?Is the problem that specialist companies have been told, (as Dolphin told me), that Microsoft have stopped providing OEM machines with XP and gone to vista?I thought XP Still had life in it yet.
