Yes, Microsoft, please give us a "clasic mode" option, cause some of us work better that way (productivity and system performance wise).

Unless technology on your end becomes about money (or lack thereof), then it is NOT about change, but rather "not changing it if we can avoid it, cause it costs too much".

Yep, I mostly work with XP due to older hardware and other compatibilty issues. In some cases we are forced to go backwards to older OS' like win2k and 98 cause it did the job on an older machine for older app., thus there's no reason to change/upgrade the app., thus we still use the older out-of-date OS.

The only way people would stop using XP any time soon is if Microsoft suddenly forced Windows XP not to work.
