Author Topic: Windows XP - Who still uses it?  (Read 3037 times)

I'm curious as to who uses Windows XP these days.  I've had 7 pretty much since it came out, and whenever I sit down at a computer running XP, I feel really dirty. 

Note: I didn't include the variations of other OS's because it's not of concern in this topic.

There is a reason it's called "XP" you know.

I still use it most of the time, but my dad's computer does have W7
it's nice and shiny and all

I feel like most people haven't upgraded yet.

my school upgraded to vista this year.

oh god, i seriously hope nobody votes "pre-xp windows"

If you have monies for it, get 7. If not, get Vista, since a lot of things aren't supporting XP anymore.

I still use XP but only because my computer is ancient :<

i use xp because i think its really easy to use and doesnt look all fancy and stuff

Was hard to vote since I use three.

Windows 7 on my new computer, for programming, web design, games, and work.

Mac OSX Leopard on my old computer, with Windows XP home on another partition. Use that for movie editing, graphical work, website concepts, audio editing.

I don't think my laptop would support W7
idk though
I do know for a fact that it wouldn't go well with the Aero, so I'd have to turn it off

Oops sorry I didnt see that

Implying that looking fancy is bad.

Anyway, my main computer uses Vista. It's due for a format, just getting a bit clusterforgeted, so I'll install 7 afterwards. I have a copy of Vista Ultimate that I haven't even used yet, lying next to me. IDK why I bought it.
My other main computers use XP because both of their motherboards are from the ASUS K8N/A8N lineup and have real difficulty running Vista/7, unless you flash the BIOS, which I have, but it never seems to work. It'll say SUCCESS or whatever, then next boot it's back to BIOS V1.
