That's because my Windows XP or 2k3 *work*. Except this one time, which I actually did write about it: http://www.osnews.com/story.php?news_id=8032
ALL the other times (and ever since that incident), WinXP has NEVER let me down. All its MS apps and third party apps for it that I use, they ALL work more than fine.
And if you ask "why don't you stay on windows then", it's because of two reasons:
1. I am a geek, I also like unix, so Linux is among my interests.
2. I run osnews, it's my "job" to try out and evaluate everything. #2 is consequence of #1.
