Windows XP is the last great hope for a quick rebound in demand. I am sure that there are lots of people like you, who have held off a computer purchase awaiting the release of Windows XP.

I think that a discussion of the impact of Windows XP, and its appeal to the consumer and business marketplace would be appropriate for this thread.

Personally I think that Windows XP is as much of an improvement over Windows 98, as Windows 95 was over Windows 3.1. Windows 98 was merely a minor revision to Windows 95.

Windows XP should have the stability of Windows 2000(NT), much greater ease of usage, and a large amount of features which will appeal to the mass market. So I think that the Microsoft/Intel media blitz stands a good chance of repeating the success of the Windows 95 launch.

However I have not downloaded the trial version of XP. I would welcome inputs and discussion by the others.
