What's this all about? I'm ready to get XP off my computer.

Also, I fear this thread is tapped!

Now what?

Thanx.

Unfortunately, I installed it as an update before reading what it was all about. Microsoft wants everyone to buy it's new Vista operating system, so they are trying to disrupt WinXP.

Thanx again.

how about the x86 OSX? šŸ™‚


the 'genuine advantage notification' -thingy can be unistalled though, and it's reinstallation subsequently avoided by custom installing the updates and unchecking GAN when ever bill tries to sneak it in. that's a goodbye for most updates, but you still get security updates.

Okay, okay. I'll be all boring and serious like you...

Micro$oft seem to think we can't spot the "If we can't sell this crap, we might as well give it away" attitude they're hiding behind this pitiful attempt to try and bribe everyone with free XP goodies to cover up the dismal flop of Vista. Which, as you may have guessed, I don't think is worth paying for.

If you're not prepared to stick with XP, then head over to the Linux gang.

Do I need to know a secret hand shake? Will they beat me up? Tell me more about this Linux gang.

Thanx.

I ain't telling you nothing, PIG!!!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_distribution

No handshakes needed, just the ability to constantly whine about M$ products, brag about how much better Linux is, whine a bit more about M$ products and constantly argue over the best Linux distribution.

You won't get beaten up, they're all nerds. Slap them around a bit and steal their lunch money.

Me too.
And Windows Media Player 10 [I have WMP 11] and Microsoft Windows Defender.
I've given the Karaoke one a miss though.
