That's how they make money. They don't money off of OS updates... they make money off of new OS.

Did I mention XP came out when I was in 5th grade?
You were 7 when It came out.
Considering they didn't release any operating systems for over 6 years, I'd say they aren't just out to only get our money quite yet. They are still interesting in giving the costumer some value for their money at this point in time.
The operating systems I have used so far:
Whatever apple OS was out from ~1995-1998
Windows 95 a few times in ~1997
windows 98 From ~1998-2002
windows ME 2000-2006 (Laptop) Then switched to Knoppix
XP since 2002-2008
Vista from 2008-2010
7 for the last 4 months.
I'm not just making crap up.
Windows 7 has been my favorite operating system so far (Other than Linux), I would never want to go back to XP. If you really want to use XP go ahead I won't stop you. But I can't recommend for someone to load XP on their computer, Unless they are using a very specific set of applications that are only compatible with XP to the exclusion of everything else. Otherwise If they really needed legacy support, go with Windows 2000.
The worst operating system I have ever used, was Windows ME
-Old computer stick with XP, or linux.
-New Computer, switch to 7, or linux.

Windows 7 is good if you're a faggot who just plays games and works.
Windows 7 is NOT good for scripters. It is entirely different from XP in terms of customization. You are restricted to what the machine can do, not what you can do.
Windows XP was entirely dynamic, easy to use, customizable to the extent that you can pretty much make it look like whatever you fuck you want it to.
Your start bar could be fucking coolzeldad prono.

So your saying the sole reason reason Windows XP is better, is because you can make your start bar have porno pictures?
Honestly, if the thing you like most in an operating system is customization, what the hell are you doing even touching a proprietary operating system?
FFS go to Linux, you cant even hold a candle to any windows system in terms of options and customization when compared to Linux.
So if you are into customization, go with Linux, for everyone else who doesn't care what their start bar looks like, go with windows 7. If you are new to computers, get an apple.
