I have finally decided to take the plunge. Last night I upgraded my Vista desktop machine to Windows XP, and this afternoon I will be doing the same to my laptop.

Mit diesen Worten beginnt Coding Sanity seine Review: Windows XP. Anschließend beschreibt er, wie Windows XP seinem Vorgänger Vista in allen Punkten überlegen ist – Performance, Hardware-Unterstützung, Zuverlässigkeit, Aussehen, Gaming, Multimedia. Sein Fazit:

To be honest there is only one conclusion to be made; Microsoft have really outdone themselves in delivering a brand new operating system that really excels in all the areas where Vista was sub-optimal. From my testing, discussions with friends and colleagues, and a review of the material out there on the web there seems to be no doubt whatsoever that that upgrade to XP is well worth the money. Microsoft can really pat themselves on the back for a job well done, delivering an operating system which is much faster and far more reliable than its predecessor. Anyone who thinks there are problems in the Microsoft Windows team need only point to this fantastic release and scoff loudly.

Meine Empfehlung an alle Vista-Nutzer unter meinen Lesern: Schnell noch “Windows XP” auf den Wunschzettel schreiben, und frohe Weihnachten sind gesichert.
