What?

This is either a gross exaggeration, or you have a deeper issue. I have over a dozen Win7 machines running in my building (that I maintain) with very little problems.

I upgraded all of them from XP about 2 years ago because they are smoother running, less temperamental and recognize peripherals much better then XP ever dreamed about.

update: I am still using my old XP Pro laptop with no issues. My security suite has apparently done its job to keep me safe (enough).

Still don't know if I should go Apple or Windows, leaning towards Apple only based upon on how great the Apple store near me has been for kids
's ipod and my 5S.

I went on newegg, etc and my head felt like it would explode - sigh
