ok so im thinking about gettin a Core2duo but am determined to stay with XP, so am just wonderin if XP is able to handle this cpu type efficiently enough so i can run the latest games: crysis, NFS-Prostreet, UT3......

ah good. so XP can live on , just wonderin is ther many ppl out ther who r determined as me to keep with xp and not switch to vista?

1st off: compatability issues (lots of) Hardware/software/Drivers
2nd: Bill G is evil!!!! tryin to switch us to vista so we can play HALO!!!! and other games he wants to double charge for!
3rd: looks like it uses more resources so xp should be faster
and more i cant think of rite now

a lot more people are determined to stick with XP than change to Vista. I'm one of them. I've tried vista a few times, and it just doesn't compare to XP in terms of speed/performance. It's nice to look at, but at the moment, thats about it. I care about performance, not eye candy, so I will stick with XP untill am I physically forced to switch to Vista.

Finally some sence, AGREE'd
performance beats eye-candy anyday
