Microsoft to Windows XP: Please Die, Already!

Maybe for a non power user XP is ok, but I can't imagine giving up & for it. I am planning on buying a tiny PC and installing XP on it. It will be more than powerful enough to play older 32-Bit games. Then again I hardly play games. But yeah, as a power user I use features that the average users don't use, and XP looks dated.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I play on running Windows XP until I die!

What exactly is 'TinyXP'?

Does it run SP2? You have to have at least an SP2 for many things to work such as new browsers.

Poor guy.

Virtual Machines or Emulators...there are many ways to run windows games in a Unix based environment.

Nah..I am not poor fella'....Just ain't paying my dollars for bullshit...

The games they put out on that are dumbed down, and people who dont know any better think xbox is the bees knees, they obviously havent seen a quality game played at the highest resolution, with a heap of DLC to add to the game, for free, for more........

Skyrim coming out soon, in about a year there will be massive amounts of mods available, Xbox version will be stuck in the dark ages where it belongs, with all the people playing them getting bored. I will be still playing skyrim in at least five years time, I wonder how many xbox players will be doing the same?




Not everybody can afford a $1500 dollar computer some are less fortunate

Virtualization is not the same as native wine with integrated commercial drivers.

It's not bullshit... compare :

With how big hard drives are, not something I really need. But my parents do have a PC with only 256mb of ram, so I will try to install it on that one.

I don't need to compare shit

Hackintosh

If you have 2 Gigs of memory, TinyXP will just use 50 Megs so you can use the rest for your programs, much better than losing one third for fancy Windows 7 crap.

You don't "need" an old pc for tinyxp, it will make a new pc run very very fast because of the tiny footprint.

OSX, full of trackware, just like Google OS.

what Os do you reccomend ??? knoppix?? gentoo? arch? windows 7? osx or what??
