"brand you laptop today you MUST HAVE VISTA"
False, Dell, Toshiba and probably others continue to offer laptops
with Windows XP:
http://search.dell.com/results.aspx?...ws+xp&cat=prod
And
http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/...HO&poid=397711
These are what I quickly found, there are probably many more.
This is the same as when Windows XP was released 6 years ago, the
previous operating system continued to be offered for a while.
If you hate it, return it and purchase one with Windows XP.
