It has been a year since the official end of XP but most users are content to stretch the life of old systems and want nothing so much as to be left alone.
Microsoft has not quite sunken to the Madison Avenue level of “lemon scented” features, but it’s on that track. More that half of all business PC’s have been sold with Vista and then subsequently downgraded to XP.
