What sorts of problems is your wife encountering with Win 7? As for
"lack of support," I've not been a fan of Windoze support for a long time.

This is not a problem with Windoze support, it is the POS application
and to go back to the one they like,they need to be running XP.

There is an option in Win 7 to install apps in a backward
compatability mode. It takes a bit of futzing around to find the
right settings for the install but it might do the trick. I agree
with you on the PITA networking issue but it does improve security by
a great deal. Overall I like Win 7 a lot. I'm running it right now
on a 3.4 Mhz machine with quad I7 processors and it is just blazing
fast, even with a lot of windows and a several processor intensive
tasks running 24/7.
