Time To Dump XP?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the wasn't-that-ship-date dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Gartner is saying it's time to plan your migration now (if you havent already done it). I for one know my company still has loads of users still on XP, citing training costs (time and money) rather than software license fees. Is my company alone in wanting to stay in the 1990s or is Windows 7 the way forward?"

    Why is the first post modded Redundant? It could be a lot of things, but Redundant seems to be a 100% inaccurate mod.

    Yeah, but I hate all the Windows XP shiny newness so I always set it to 'Classic' theme, which I think was first up in Windows 95 :)

    Meta-mods might -- one can only hope -- deal with it.
