Three year back I purchased three official XP Pro discs (with accompanying licences) and they have served me well enough thus far.

I'm actually witholding an upgrade to a quad core on one of my machines....don't want to take the plunge or chance the expense until a good reliable and well tested OS is available (hopefully 7)
In your situation is it understandable because of SH3 and modding it, etc. Vista hates star force as mush as we do. As far as 7, the beta was very much stable right out of the box. I have heard very few complaints and plenty of attaboy with Window 7.

That's good to hear (positive comments re: 7).

Starforce has never been a problem at this end though....thankfully

SF never screwed with my machine either...knock on wood. Others though have had nightmares. I think those with Sony DVD in their machine. Not sure. I never paid much attention because SF did nothing adverse to my machine.
