XP is still a GREAT platform. It's the one that I still use and this desktop is pushing five years old now, and hasn't crashed even ONCE.Lynettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11179278237988549530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667514217502990299.post-55051744457343897702010-02-03T23:16:22.742-06:002010-02-03T23:16:22.742-06:00If it's not broken, don't fix it.If it's not broken, don't fix it.Kaye Wallerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06491607694389685973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667514217502990299.post-55569235624047927712010-02-03T23:09:56.402-06:002010-02-03T23:09:56.402-06:00I'm debating upgrading to 7 myself.

I could also get Office Ultimate for $60. Just don't know if it's worth the bother on this computer and going from XP...Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12376009178775880471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667514217502990299.post-26173561551505498702010-02-03T21:58:52.272-06:002010-02-03T21:58:52.272-06:00I stick with Uncle Steve.

Of course, I see him on local things all the time since he lives about 15 miles from me. He doesn't work for Microsoft any more. He's retired. All of his time is devoted to charity work and to his family.<br /><br />Microsoft isn't my favorite thing either all the time, but I'm not one who thinks that it's evil incarnate. Then again, I still use Windows XP. :-)JPDenihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11113766962967619446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667514217502990299.post-769485719110522782010-02-03T16:10:59.780-06:002010-02-03T16:10:59.780-06:00Did you have any trouble installing it?

I think I'll wait and see how Windows 7 works out for a while before I upgrade to it.Kathy Handysidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05986128688954443243noreply@blogger.com
