[access-uk] Support for XP

I am likely to need to purchase a new laptop in the near future and have
found sources of models of the type I need with XP Pro installed.
I am wondering though whether I ought to be prepared for the possibility of
Microsoft withdrawing support for XP in the not too distant future and
forcing me reluctantly down the Vista road.
I have been trying to discover the minimum specs for a machine to run
Vista comfortably, but even this is not easy in view of the different flavours
available. But reading George's post this morning makes me realise that
there are so many pitfalls other than processor speed, RAM etc.
I begin to wonder whether it would be best to buy an inexpensive laptop
now and expect to have to abandon it when Microsoft "pull the plug" on XP
Any advice would be much appreciated,
Douglas
