[Vision2020] rebate checks

[Tom Hansen]

Moving from Windows Vista to Windows XP . . . GOOD MOVE!

I NEVER purchase a beta, first, or second generation of any softwre, 
especially operating systems.

I stayed with Windows 2000 until just a couple years ago when XP was into 
its fourth or fifth generation.  I have been with Windows XP ever since.

Netscape has migrated into Flock, a Firefox/Netscape hybrid.

> I've never been been a big fan of Internet Explorer.  I was on Netscape 
until their
quality degraded due to lack of funding and then I switched over to 
Firefox which performs
very well for me unless I need to go to the Microsoft update page which 
forces me over to
IE. Also, has anyone switched over to Vista?  I bought a computer last 
year that came
loaded with Vista, but I was having enough subtle trouble with it that I 
finally just
reinstalled XP last weekend on that machine.  In my opinion, there isn't 
much reason to go
to the Vista OS.
