In the event we lose a machine totally we will buy new hardware and load XP/2003 on it ourselves... You are only forced into Vista if you want a turnkey product from Dell, etc... If you are willing to find some pimple faced 14 year old hacker kid, he can whip you up a computer with any OS you need... I'll throw my chips in with the no-Vista-for-now crowd. .... Open source is the way forward guys. Forget M$. Think of it like being seated on a surf board, waiting for a wave, you can feel the backwash just starting but you can't see the crest forming yet. China, India, Brazil have all implemented plans to go Open Source. Has anyone read "The Tipping Point"? |
