But here is the bad news, XP isn't going to be supported after the spring of 
next year if the rumors are true.

  Dear Jamie: 
  Your Humble correspondent held on to his Windows 98 computer until it died!
  I then jumped to Windows XP.
  I was fortunate to be able to buy the XP computer about twenty minutes before 
Vista exploded on to the seen. 
  Vista is the next step up from XP.
  Vista was generally well received! that is if you compare it to a canker sore 
or gingivitis. 
  Windows 7 is the next step in the relentless advance of Microsoft Windows.
  We had windows 1, 2, 3, then Windows 965 then Windows 98.
  Windows Millennium, then Windows XP, then Windows Vista. In October we get 
Windows 7. 
  you wrote "You know what, I'm happy with the computer system and software I 
have I think. Maybe I don't wanna know."
  Good Call.
  Of course sooner or later they'll make you upgrade. Hopefully I can hold on 
to my XP until about Windows nine or something. 
  Of course I might have to upgrade when JAWS 15 stops supporting anything 
below Vista or Kurzweil version 22 runs only on Windows 9 and above, but I'll 
burn that bridge when they drag me to it.
