I was being sarcastic about having never run Windows in 10 yrs. I have 2 XP boxes. One is hardly ever used at all (netbook), the other used soley for Netflix, they and M$ having made NF streaming unavailable to Linux as of yet. I still hafta reboot about every other day to get it to straighten up and fly right.
Agreed. Despite my Netflix/XP box having the rare freaky-deaky day, it's surprisingly robust, not succumbing to any really bad mojo or exploits, despite still being really crapped up with bloatware. OTOH, I don't use it for anything BUT Netflix. That means no browsing the mean streets or darker side of the web or reading email, etc. I would certainly hope Win7 is a step up. BTW, I notice how all you offended Windows users have managed to completely jump from the W98/XP era to Win7 as if Vista never existed. How does that work? ;)
