    Our next PC will be Mac!

    I am so sick of Microsoft's instability and vulnerability.

    easy to keep using XP - you just have to have all the right drivers due to PCI express now. Apart from that - oh & hard drive controllers - you should be fine

    Just go to ubuntu (or your favourite linux). Most likely you will not even need to change printers as linux picks up on a lot of printers.
