[citation][nom]rwky_92[/nom]Personal Opinion? PC WILL NEVER DIE!because, compare the most performance laptop with a same performance desktop, look at the prices, and you'll feel the PC, buy for the money u bought that laptop, a PC! and you'll fell the PC'S power.When a notebook will hold 16core processore, 32gb ram, 3 graphic cards, and a few HDD with a few TB on each, then the PC will hold 100+ core, 100+gb ram, and so on... get the idea?[/citation]
I still run a XP box. Out of sheer loyalty to a machine which it's OS have served me and family well.
Also it is a reminder that one year during the Holidays I was told inside the Best Buy that no more XP so solly forever. Only what they put on the shelf (Vista) I went to newegg and that week discovered the death of XP as a offering among OS's
That was Microsoft's effort to force the "Masses" to buy a NEW OS. Guess what? They got bit in the ass because it will take a decade or more before the last XP box goes off line for good.
It will be real interesting to feed that old XP with SSD's and other fine hardware which it was never ever designed for. Hopefully by then today's cutting edge hardware will be considered Legacy by then.
The same way you put Historic Tags on a muscle car that can still beat anything at either the 1/4 mile or top end depending on how it is set up.
