    It's way better than Windows 98se! I just have too much invested in Flight Simulator (about 20 gigs worth of data) and I don't want to do the transfer, plus I'm not very fond of Windows 7. I have it in VMware and I'm still trying to get the hang of it.

    Same here, no google for me... Unless my lame butt IT Dept gets their rear in gear and pushes out IE8 to us XP users. Right now we run a mixed environment of XP and 7.
