Save XP

Which Operating System do you use? If you have a new computer, it’s Vista. Blech. I mean, it’s pretty and it’s slick, but it’s full of compatibility problems. And what if you have an itch while working with Vista?

See? You can’t even scratch yourself. Those security warnings are endless and maddening. So I support the movement to Save XP. I got this e-mail from them tonight:

“Dear ‘Save XP’ petition participant — SaveXP.comThank you for signing our ‘Save XP’ petition. You’re getting this message because you told us you wanted updates on new developments in the ‘Save XP’ campaign. Here’s what’s happening: Close to 200,000 people have signed the petition since January 14. However, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer thinks we’re not serious about the Save XP movement, nor does he seem to take the people who signed it seriously. That’s where you come in. Help us meet our goal of 300,000 unique petition signatures by June 2008. Please ask your friends, family and colleagues to join the movement by signing up at http://www.savexp.com.”

  1. I have Office for Mac, too. No prob. If I use my tablet pc, I e-mail the Word docs to myself.

  2. yup, i have Office for Mac — and i haven’t had any problems opening or editing existing Word or Excel files that i had created on a PC.

  3. Yeah, Macs are great. But what are you doing about your Word files? Can’t open them in Pages. Are you running Office for Mac?

  4. it’s why when i bought a new laptop last month, i bought a Mac. after five computers in twelve years, this was my first Mac. with all the problems i was hearing about Vista, it was time to make the switch.
