Thanks very much Windows XP

[Mobius]

Thanks very much Windows XP for the wonderful years with you.
But time flows on - and I am preparing to move on.
Will still keep in touch with you at my workplace where you still hold
sway - till later this year.
You were the best from the Microsoft family.
As I begin a relationship with your younger sibling - Seven - I feel blessed
that most of your sterling qualities live on in her.
This also means that Usenet will start to go away from me too. Seven groups
are exclusively on the Web.
Thanks for having made using a computer such a learning and productive
experience.
Regards.
Mobius

You and XP should get a room.

We did, and been together almost a decade! That was the reason for my post!

There's a news group for Windows 7. It's alt.windows7.general. It's not
sponsored by Microsoft.

So, you're dumping old sexy for something younger?

I wish I could get rid of her too, but the office won't upgrade our dying
computers. Maybe I should get a tattoo that says "Single Core for Life".

Though I switched over to Linux about 18 months ago...

I did try both Vista and Win7 but will never use them


for any of the few times I run Windows...it will be XP.

If Windows was a more secure OS I probably would have stayed with it

leave a dear jane
letter before you
leave.

and if you didn't
wear a cd case then
you should get
tested.

perhaps, its too
late because of
your insane posting.
