Thread: Still running Win XP? Prepare to suffer !! :p

IT organizations got a dose from Steve Ballmer yesterday when he urged them to switch to Windows Vista or Windows 7 instead of remaining with Windows XP. "If you deploy a four or five-year old operating system today, most people will ask their boss why the heck they don't have the stuff they have at home,” the Microsoft CEO said. He went on to add that employees may start complaining against the organization for providing them with a back-dated OS, while they are running updated OS on high end PCs back at their place!!

they are already doing a lot by means of bundled vista which we are forced to pay for on some brands of laptops like dell ... . i just hate this policy. every laptop brand should provide the flexibility for the customer to choose his os or not choose any.

Its the only way they know to do business.
