never upgraded a new operating system and xp is just fine with me and I
don't think a few bells and whistles is worth the hassle. I think I'm going
to need to get a laptop this tax season anyway cause we need to make room
and it will have it on there. What is IEEE? I'm a student online, how would
that help me? Oh do you know what happened to vista? Is windows 7 the new
vista or did they stop making it or something. I've seen computers at the
library that had vista installed, but new computers at walmart have 7.

Cool. Well I definitely recommend XP. Although if it can handle 7 then
I would go with that. If you need access to the software, its easy to
just set up an account with IEEE as a student. With that, you get
access to MSDNAA, which is Microsoft's software distribution alliance
for students. You can get XP and all that free. Plus Office and a
bunch of other software.
