WindowsXP is the OS that Microsoft should have released in 1995, It’s the best OS
by far.
Users who have paid for the product have nothing to fear from MS activation software.
They arnt spying on you - neither are they preventing you from using your machine,
they are just protecting their investment, the same as you would protect your business
interests.
Upgrades will get the new OS at a reduced rate, it costs nothing to obtain your ID
via the net.
NO ONE WILL MAKE YOU UPGRADE !
Sure in time win9x will be obsolete just as win3.1 users are - but that is quite
a way off and Windows 2000 will run XP software - so there is no excuse for having
to use it if you dont want.
What I’m amazed at is the amount of jealousy there is concerning MS, Bill Gates is
rich because he makes good software, If Linux was all its cracked up to be it would
be No1. It has nothing to do with marketing - its all to do with ease of use - compatibility,
and software available. Remember you cant even GIVE Linux away lol.......
So all you whiners - just shut your loaf and let the man get on with his job - making
the best OS better!
