I love Vista, my friend, and will more than probably purchase a Retail
Upgrade copy of Vista Ultimate, since I have a full version of XP Pro.

This will save me at least a hundred bucks off Microsoft's inflated Retail
price for Vista Ultimate.

If I don't have that kind of money immediately, and a Generic OEM edition
is released, I will purchase that, if it's less than the price of a Retail
Upgrade edition..

By the way, Linux is a poor excuse for a desktop OS.
AS are Mac OS9 and OS X.

The fact is, I am a confirmed user of Windows, and have used every version
of Windows since Windows 1.0. Before that, I used MS DOS (as well as IBM
DOS), from 1.0 on up till it was discontinued. Before that, I used CP/M,
and IBM JCL on an IBM 360. I've used Geos, Atari OS, Commodore 128 Basic,
Commodore 64 Basic, Commodore Vic 20 Basic (8k Basic), Adam TOS, 4k Basic,
IBM ROM Basic, Tandy OS, etc. I've installed and used several versions of
Linux.

And I have all the links to various Linux distro's that I need, thank you
very much, as well as more than a few copies of various Linux distros, as
well as copies of OS 9 and OS X..

Thanks for your advice, though...

Donald
