I will start this off by saying that I'm more towards NOT using WinXP. Here's how I see it:
THE GOOD:
1. Looks like there are going to be some really major compatability updates.
THE BAD:
1. Activation! AAARRRGGGHHH!
2. The interface. It looks cute and pretty, but doesn't seem all that practical to me. In addition to making the OS more cumbersome to use, it will probably take a heavy toll on performance. I didn't care much for WindowBlinds, and this can only be worse.
3. Spyware!
4. "Features" that cripple the OS beyond hope. (ie. the sabotaged MP3 decoding)
5. Burned-in apps that not only suck, but conflict with better apps and prevent them from working.
These are only my beliefs and opinions. Do not flame me about this.
