Thanks for the info Bokken.
Albromor, what are you planning on using XP for? I know that it is still pretty expensive, so if its not completly neccesary, then mabey doing a fresh install of another OS is better, because although Micro$oft can be dodgy with pricing, with all the talk of new OS's they might bring the price down, and nothing makes me madder than buying an OS for $500 and then reading in the Harvey Norman catalogue that it has dropped in ptice by about $100. Not that that has ever hapened to me, but I know that it would make me angry.
