RE: Determine if your hardware can support Windows XP Mode in Windows 7
Yes, this is all fine, and anything is better than Vista, but you can also run the Virtual PC on Vista and install Windows XP can't you? I have heard two sides to the story. That with Vista software vendors had plenty of time to update their programs for Vista compatibility, and the flip side, that it is Microsoft's job to eliminate compatibility issues. My opinion is that if Microsoft wants to continue charging the big bucks for its operating system, it is their job. If I can't run Windows 7 without running the Virtual PC, why continue running Microsoft-based software at all? Why not go with Linux?
