security loopholes

some criminal will find them.

But give it about 6 years and you will find virtually no new gizmo will run on XP (or more specifically the s/w for it). I am finding this on Win98SE (SP2). I keep a machine running on Win98 because I have software that runs on it. And has problems installing on XP (long file names). AND I want to see what my website looks like to legacy surfers.

aren't KVM switches (& Laplink) wonderful)?

eg Morph Studio works - all versions of Morphman seem to be exasperatingly crap - until I got a ripped-off version which I don't use yet. Morph Studio was a Ulead freebie and I would willingly pay for the upgrade but there isn't one - unless it morphed into Morphman and collapsed.
