Save Windows XP!

Since about 70% of PC users are happy with their XP - or at least much prefer it to buggy compatibility-challenged Vista - a "Rescue XP Movement" has arisen on the internet.

You did know that XP will be phased out as of this June 2008. Off the shelves. No longer buyable at any retail outlet. And all new computers sold will come equipped with buggy compatibility-challenged Vista. Whether you want it or not. Choice does not exist in Microsoft's universe. Why should it? They own the universe, right?

Many Windows/PC users are now looking into Linux and The Mac. Anything but Vista. Microsoft has gone corporately suicidal.

Even Microsoft's business/corporate users so prefer XP to Vista that 67% of them have actually downgraded new company PC's from Vista to XP.

And the Microsoft folly marches on, deaf to the wishes of a majority of its customers, both home and business users.

Nevertheless, XP users are banding together across the internet to express their views and sign one fat humungous petition to keep XP alive. Or, at least to delay its demise. You can participate, too. Learn more by visiting the Save XP website from Infoworld. Sign the petition. Add your voice to the other voices.

And start thinking about all your options... the alternatives to Microsoft operating systems. If Microsoft loses a large chunk of their customer base, they will only have themselves to blame. At the very least, figure out what your options are.
