WinXP: Should You Worry? -- 3:55 pm CST, Update by A.T. Hun

The Firing Squad has a rather surprising article on Windows XP and why you should be concerned about it. I'm rather surprised to see something like this on a website like FS. If you are considering (or have no choice) getting WinXP on your next computer, think through that decision carefully . . .

J.t.Qbe comments: Very interesting article--went a little overboard at the end, or did it? The question is, how many of those who are wailing about XP are really going to say 'no'? In a year or two, you won't be able to buy a prebuilt PC without XP. You won't be able to play any of the new flashy games without XP. Most people will cave in and sell their souls for a little eye candy.
