I don’t like the price - here in Europe it’s about twice the cost of the US version. But Windows XP works just fine for me at the moment - I will let others find all the bugs and shortcomings

The headline seems to be misleading. It’s just a three-day trial, not some free access for life. I believe they used to have those trials for everyone before. VISTA is selling slower than expected in the US but Microsoft isn’t worried. It will be installed on all new computers. So sooneer or later we’ll all get it.
