RE: Green screen to GUI

Just an FYI:

Not that I advocate running on old OS releases, but your Windows XP
license includes the right to run back-level versions of Windows, i.e.
2000 Pro.  So you could buy a PC that comes bundled with XP Pro and
wipe/reload with 2000 Pro and not be in violation of the EULA.

Beyond that, I agree with your statements.  Microsoft's history of being
Microsoft-compatible is questionable at best.  MS also doesn't seem to
provide corporations much in the way of protection from technology
obsolescence.
