Smart move by Microsoft. Vista is clearly better, but not so much better that people want to upgrade.

I think this is a great idea!

@Kyle:
I agree buddy. Maybe Windows Seven will actually be like XP was to 98

Looks like Microsoft is getting to know that Vista is not doing that good. So why not make XP better? Atleast they can make money.
Well I am not Anti-Microsoft.. as I am heavily dependent on windows..

Does it mean XP is going to get all the annoying alerts that Vista users seem to complain often about?

Maybe you could turn them off but it’ll take another blog post from you to show me how.

It’s still in private beta so we might see it before the end of the year

Windows XP needed a SP3 and I think it’s a great move by Microsoft. Specially, when Vista still has so many bugs.

Brown now u are scaring me.As it is Vista is a terrible software and windows XP is far more better than Vista and now by reading this post i think i will never try to implement Service Pack 3.
I dunno what more Microsoft will do to promote the highly ignored operating system(read Vista). I guess they are just trying to force us to upgrade to Vista.
What my suggestion is that they should try to improve Vista and not backtrack
Cheers
