Has anyone had a XP install longer than 2yrs I can say my brother has with all updates and security it lasted 2yr 4 months then his HDD died and had to buy a new one.
I can write off Win 7 for now because it's only just come out but with XP having the old saying "Must re-install after 6 months because it's gets bloated" surly most of use have gone beyond that without any performance loss.
I personally have gone 1yr 7mths then my Maxtor 250GB HDD snuffed it and thus had to buy a new one myself luckly I back-up my music and what not so didnt lose anything.
For VISTA I've no idea if it's got a simular thing I understand it's gets better over time am I right I have only ever used VISTA for more than 3mths and then went back to XP as I just got used to it.
Win 7 is my end of November purchase but I am thinking of waiting more and getting my Denab 945.
