I wrote this article a year ago. As such, many of the arguments presented in the article are out of date. I also want to point out that I wrote the piece because it was assigned to me, not because it was something that I felt strongly about. Personally, I upgraded most of my workstations to Windows XP on the day that it was released. I’ve found XP to be a great operating system, although it may not always be the best choice in every situation.
