If I built a new computer I could still put Windows 2000 on it. Just because you’ve got an old OS doesn’t mean you can’t put it on new equipment.
yes, but why the hell would you want to?
Think of it this way then. If they had never released Vista and you had that long period in between XP and 7, would you have used XP or switched to Mac or Linux?
well since you want to use that comparison, you would also have to realize that when windows 7 did come out, none of my current programs would work on it at all (no backwards compatibility), and that by now windows xp would have had about a .5% market share, i.e. nobody would still make apps for it. given that scenario, yes I would switch because windows would no longer be in charge of the market or support features I want and use. Plus windows hardware would be terrible.
