Greetings all,
 
As you all know CNET is a very well respected resource for PC related information.

Also, just a heads up that XP is still available until June, at this point in time.
Possibly ( hopefully ) the cutoff point will be extended.
 
So, if you're planning on buying a new PC and want the best performance and the least amount of
problems, XP is still the obvious choice in my opinion.
 
Sincerely,

P.S.
This has also been common knowledge in the Digital Audio Community for a long time.
