I have an old Toshiba laptop I bought in 2004 with XP. It has a nice 17" screen and over the years I've upgraded it with a 7200 rpm harddrive and 2gb of RAM but it's still slow. It still works fine but unfortunately Adobe photoshop lightroom 5 won't install on XP.
I checked earlier today and Microsoft hadn't released the final XP updates but they're out now and it's updating right now... just finished and now it's doing the required restart to enter everything into the registry.

I build my own Desktop computers with 64 bit or 32 bit Windows 7 and I like it now that I'm used to it. It's similar to XP with a bunch more stuff in it and it uses different named folder paths throughout the operating system.

I've never heard anything good about Windows 8, but I hear they are coming out with updates to make it more like Windows 7.
