I still think XP is the best OS (for me), for a couple of reasons. For one, I have sensitive eyes and for some reason I can never get Windows 7 to get past a 60Hz screen refresh rate. On Windows XP, I can get up to 120Hz. Secondly, I love the bright, pretty Windows XP 'Luna' theme. Lastly, it just seems to run better than 7 in general for me. I do not have a low-end PC. What do the rest of you think? It seems like I am one of the very few people who still loves Windows XP, and I don't see that changing anytime soon. I run Windows XP and 7 on my desktop, and 7 on my laptop (only because I can't get XP on it). LONG LIVE, WINDOWS XP!

Windows 7 is still a great OS in my opinion but Windows XP follows close behind (better than Vista).

I miss my Windows XP and it's glory.
God I got 7 when it first came out, and NOTHING was compatible with it (I got one of the first computers with 7 preloaded onto it)

I still, to this day, use 7, and if I didn't have the home edition, I'd run the dual OS and put XP on it.

I run a dual-boot with windows XP and windows 2000. I have 2000 incase something goes wrong with XP.
Yeah I have returned....now I have to start all over again -_-

I use Vista on my current PC, and it runs perfectly well. I have had 7 in the past and it's fantastic. I am one of those people who'll never really look back.


There is however one thing I must say. LINUX FTW!

I've only ever used Vista and XP and I've gotta say I love Vista. XP just seems..."old"...to me. Plus I've never really had the compatibility issues you guys talk about.

ALL of the PC's in my school run XP.
If it weren't for the actual HARDWARE being utter shit, I wouldn't mind it.
