Hi! If I would choose between Windows XP and Windows Vista, I would definitely stay with Windows XP, even Vista is newer. Vista has a lot of bugs. Now a new OS will soon comes out, and that's Windows 7. I heard it's good, but I don't know if it really is, I still need to research more about it. And I will also consider my current specifications of my computer if Windows 7 will fit to it. But if I would have to choose between the combinations of all the OS and you, I would definitely choose YOU, haha! You're so pretty! Have a nice day to you! Take care of yourself.

I have one more reason to stick with XP is the stability of several software applications are fine with XP,and vista or 7 might be unadjustable with the most.the second reason is the low configuration of my system,which is just 1.6 GHZ processor and 256 Mb of Ram..in this specs i don't think vista or windows 7 will make me happy at all.... ;) So for the time being it is better to stay with something runs smoothly...!

I've had Windows 2000 Me and now have had XP for years. I like it. My son has vista. He says he likes that, but it took a while to get used to it's differences from XP. I hope to get a new computer but I really worry because the vista has had so many problems and is so controversial. I have been looking forward to 7 because it is supposed to be better with fewer problems and more secure. I am hoping my computer will hold on until probably next year before I have to buy an new one. 7 is out in beta for anyone to download and try now. From what I hear Microsoft will soon start pushing toward 7 since the vista has been such a bust. I am looking forward to seeing the results from those who have been able to use 7 and what they think about it compared to vista and xp. Right now if I only have a choice of vista or xp, I'll take xp. I'm hoping 7 is a good system like xp has been. But 7 won't be readily available until December.Sigh.

I will not upgrade to windows 7 insted first i will try to install on a new partion and see it's perfomance if i like it then i will upgrade. I hope XP is the best in windows family because it can support almost all the softwares and hardwares i find the major bifference is that it looks much better it seems that it has more styles just styles i don't think we have change the operating system.

I will check out WIN7 stable or not stable, and ask my friend to try it before i upgrade my WINXP. I love my WINXP, i satisfied with my Windows. I using 2 different Windows: 98ME and WINXP SP2, so i can test it for compatibility.

i think we all should give windows 7 a try... after all xp does not support direct x 10. but if user friendliness is concerned i would like to stick with xp. i have upgraded my service pack to service pack 3 and it is running fantastically....

hi!! i would go for windows xp, however vista has disappointed but we can expect that win7 might satisfy. anyways i dont want to take any risk in being the first to explore it. i'll try it only if it is successful.

I'll still use Windows XP. Windows 7 requires a much more higher system specs for your computer which will force to you upgrade peripherals.

I also use XP. I will try Windows Seven first, if it is better than XP then will replace it with Windows Seven.

Yep, you don't wanna upgrade since you have got used to the old version. But for me, I am trying to use as many as versions of Windows systems. This is one way to get to know more of this system. So you see?
