XP may stay a little longer
Dell recently announced that due to customer demand (in the USA), they would once more be making XP available, pre-installed, on their computers. Dimension E520 and E521 desktops, and Inspiron 1501, E1405, E1505, and E1705 notebooks. US customers only so far, and pre-install until Jan. 31, 2008 only.
Vista sales are "far from impressive" it seems. Most people seem to think it brings more problems and no obvious real advantage. "Unmaintainable" is the current buzz word for Vista, brief details here and here.
IMO: Leave Vista alone until system updates are proven successful, and some of the bugs removed, and then only on a brand new system with at least 4Gb of RAM as things stand. Then the 'Aero' may run well.
