I am not going to upgrade to XP. I don't really want to spend the money and I don't like the "Product Activation" scheme. Tim

Reynoso, I'm still running Win-98 on all my machines. I'm unlikely to upgrade soon unless I buy new hardware. Too much other stuff that's working OK to take a chance on screwing around with an O/S upgrade. tgptndr

"how many on this thread are thinking/planning of upgrading to this new OS?" Why would anyone in sober mind want to do this? And what could be possibly "new" in this "OS"? As soon as I could get rid of "windows animation" and other processor-hogging crap, I am perfectly fine with w98, and so far successfully weathered WinME, Win2000,.. etc, and hope to weather the XP, unless all web pages I open would say that only XP is allowed to access the site. - Ali
