Yep. My buddy, who was a six figure income sysadmin, moved up from XP to
Vista. After 2 mos, he dumped it in a frustrated rage after it trashed his
HDD and he returned to XP.

Dell and Lenovo (formerly IBM) still sell XP laptops, but you'd better
hurry, as M$ is killing XP availability, shortly. Also, lest you be
tempted, M$ has a class action suit against it for falsely labeling "Vista
Capable" computers, which they are not.
