This is a rhetorical question… Of course, you do… Lot of people worldwide are ready to give an arm and a leg to get back to Windows XP if not anything else… Lot of them gasp every time they see an update from Vista thinking that Redmond has finally started paying attention to the crap-bag that Vista is… Some people just look at the sky and the only question they ask is “Why, How bad can I have wronged you?” IT departments worldwide have been trying to find ways to switch back to the “last good one” (Windows XP)…
