This is old news, but why I remain to stick with XP none the less. Microsoft announced that XP Will be supported until 2010 before Vista hit the shelves.

I hate vista, it offers no benefits in my view, all it will do is waste my time getting used to it, slow my computer down, turn out to be incompatible with lots of hardware and some software etc! I'm planning to build a superpowered gaming PC in 12 months or so and it will definitely have XP on. I think microsoft realised that if they took XP off the shelves, people like me wouldn't downgrade (hehe) to vista, we would simply pirate XP! I must admit though, I think office 2007 is pretty good.

I have been just as reluctant to move to Office 2007 because of the problems I know others have had and I just can't afford all the time tweaking and searching for updates to get things running as smoothly as my XP Pro and Office 2003 system.
