Went into PC Club today to pick up some more RAM.
They told me that they would have Laptops available with XP for
another month.

I went to my local Circuit city a few days ago, they usually have about 12
laptops on there lockdown display, they only had two left. I went down the
road to Best Buy, they're usual display only had 1 laptop left, but I didn't
get a good
look at it. There was a fellow hovering over it with his arm laying on top,
he told
me that it was his and the clerk had went to get the key to remove it from
the display.
The local Sam's Club had 4 laptops left on display. Oh, only 3 now.

We checked with Alienware today (we plan to buy 6 or 7 new systems
from them soon.) They'll ship systems with XP Pro installed, estimated
for at least another year. Seems that a lot of corporate customers
aren't ready for Vista.
I have heard that some of the chains won't sell XP-equipped machines
any more.

And if you don't want MS to push IE 7 on you, you must get and use
IE7BlockerToolkit.EXE.
Actually, you must have used it a few months ago or IE 7 would already be
pushed into your PCs.

In the few other cases where websites demand IE, I've found that User
Agent Switcher will allow FF to work by pretending to be IE.
Unforunately, there are a few websites that just don't work at all, or
have severely limited functionality, with FF.

Then there are web pages created by MS-Word that cause MS-Explorer to
error. Talking about in-house compatibility...

Nope. My Update service has it listed as non essential, select
electively.
Been running Vista for 7 months now, and xp at work with constant
updated running, and it is listed that way there as well. Still
running 6 on both.
Try again.

My boss had IE7 pushed on him and then he couldn't get his online
banking to work any more.
So he asked me how to install Firefox (showed him, added NoScript) and
it all worked fine again.
Amusing that IE7 pushed someone away from M$ browser (which has no
business being part of the OS).
