    Yep, me too. I may play with it, but a play with RC1 left me totally underewhelmed. My decision to replace my oldest desktop before Vista was released is looking all the better.

    Even though they stopped supporting Windows 3.1 and 98, I still use them. Even if they cut off support for XP tomorrow, it is no skin off my back. :cool:
