Jo, I think, possibly, you know: I also hold the CDs for XP O/S.

Herein lies what will be a prob.: Forever overwriting costly O/S on newer computers that come with VISTA and x-amount of apps. bundled. Kinda of like, by Jan. 2009, analog will be out-the-window, so-to-speak. Eventually, costs will still toll or a computer will be reliant on applications that are outdated.

To pay a premium for a computer that does not support programs intended for machines with an O/S by MS makes no sense. It's a rip-off.

Right now, however, I am so tired.
