Compulsory upgrade with new machines

nick hoffman — 12/31/2007 7:40:59 AM (archived)

I don't know how it is in the States, but here in Oz we cannot buy a new machine with XP on it. Microsoft is pushing Vista like heroin to the OEM market.

We had to upgrade 3 machines, and had to go Vista. Now we're struggling with all the other new stuff, like a complete new interface to excel. i gotta relearn a whole bunch of key-strokes...
