[QUOTE="Blue Duck, post: 358286, member: 8071"] I appreciate that there is no real "problem" with xp other than its old. But when microsoft finally give up on the only half decent OS they ever made I fear that it may become like a phone box all covered in other peoples piss and full of picture of naked ladies. Just wanted to try get the most out of it as its like a 20" tv with a pc built in also I have a knack of making old pc's live well beyond their sell by date. When I tried to upgrade to 8 it kept sending me to a page that said "Now is a great time to buy a new computer" and that annoyed me ; Think I have a hooky copy of 7 somewhere? I got bumped on ebay but got my money back! Wouldn't mind giving linux a punt but want to keep some of the functionality :) Edit: thanks for the link onoff :) Did I mention it only has 1 usb port! :slap [/QUOTE]
