is it just me or are alot of us still on xp? seems like it'll be that way for a while yet too. at least until I see a viable reason to upgrade. dx10, meh, cool gui menu's, meh, more networking capabilities, meh.

For everything other than gaming its not bad at all. Even for gaming it still smokes Linux or OSx. I switched for curiosity and because I know I'll be supporting this crap soon enough.

Thru ClubOc's Overclock till you are Red white and Blue event . it was based on a compition on who got the higest score with 3dmark06 from 1-3 gotten either a case or a power supply and a copy of vantage 4 - 9 gotten a copy of vantage ( they were Advanced tpyes ), while keeping the Grandprize a Random drawing of all participants . i came in second place ( i held first place for the longest against 3 9800gtx's in vista but he decided to change out cpu and run XP and bested me by a few hundred points with 2 9800 Gtx's , Just for info sake he said that i would still take him in vista )
