Many Users Cling To Windows XP In The Face Of Vista Problems

It is interesting to see that MS ususally comes full circle when they rollout a new OS. This happended when they went from 95-98 and 98-XP, etc. I work for a very large company that runs Microsoft as its standard desktop and we are prudently waiting for Vista to make its way into the mainstream over the next year and provide enough time for the vendors to catch up and make their equipment compatible. I have been using my home desktop with XP for seven years and do not plan on upgrading anytime soon unless forced.

According to the article, 96% of peripheral devises (mice, keyboards, etc) are compatibal with Vista as are 2000 applications. If you are interested, read more at http://www.informationweek.com/story/showArticle.jhtml?articleID=201200080&cid=RSSfeed_IWK_News

I'm sticking with XP for at least a year or two.

Unfortunately I have to agree. It would be nice to be able to use some of the new stuff in Vista but for business it is too risky.
