Windows Vista

I was being sarcastic - sorry

I don't like beta releases of OSs. I have tried longhorn nearly 4 years ago. Nothing was working

I just finally graduated from Win2000 to XP and now a new system is coming out. LOL

Actually, you still have some time left. It looks like late 2006 or early 2007 for Vista now.

I'm so tight with money it will probably be 2020 by the time I upgrade. About a year ago I had 98.

Yes I think it will be worth it. I agree regarding the .NET apps. However, it could be that many new features will only run on Vista when the next Visual Studio has been released.

The Performance Features also sound nice:
Sleep, SuperFetch, External Memory Drive (EMD), and Hybrid Hard Drive..

I will upgrade anyway because I always like to be up to date
