[DUG] Anyone need XP Pro?

[Sean Cross]

Because it is shithouse.  The entire operating system locks up for minutes at a time, reboots take 5-10 minutes, all the shortcuts and control panel options have moved, applications lock up and "stop responding" (inc office 2007)...

It is just good enough that I haven't take the day or 2 to upgrade back to xp.

If you want Vista, get it on a new machine.  Don't bother installing it on an existing machine.
