Anonymous Coward User ID: 53618 Canada 10/04/2006 10:03 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well fuck Microsoft then. My pirated copy of XP runs wicked on my machine and I won't pay those fuckers a cent. I don't need any "Aero" graphical user interface anyway (Hell, I use the "Classic" option in XP to make it look like Win2K. The XP interface looks like a child's fisher-price toy otherwise). From what I see much of Vista is fluff anyway. Until some program that I cannot live without requires it, it will not exist on my systems. |

So that alone will force most people to switch to it. |

"There will be an XP backlash, which is to say people (will) cling to XP in order to avoid this," he said. |
