Windows If you are sticking with XP - and plenty of us are - and you're planning to miss the upgrade to Vista read this article on the Australian PC World. It looks at big questions like: will Windows XP still be properly supported by Microsoft and, as a primary development target, by third parties? Is there something we've missed, some hidden gotcha that's going to trip us up?

While the bundled Vista was far from exciting (and thus lasted barely a day on the notebook) I quickly fell in love with Arch + KDE + compiz fusion.
Granted neither Arch nor compiz is groundbreaking, but for the first time in years I've found myself excited in the opperating system + frontend again (to the point where I'm making up any old excuse to boot it up and play)


I know the feeling and I do the same thing.Using Arch on my workstation,it's snappy,boots and shuts down like lightning on pretty modest hardware.
