Well, as for me, I agree with that more than with any other post here. Computers are advancing tremendously every year in specs such as RAM and processor, so having Windows 7, which is less bloated then Vista, but still more so than XP has little effect. I once remember picking up a computer magazine from 2005 and staring in shock as I saw the shoddy computer specifications for the computers advertised there.

I like XP more than Vista, as the vast majority of people. Windows 7 looks neat from what I read/saw/heard about it, but I still think it is moving towards the bloatware trend. Chances are, I will like XP more. But that is little different from a 70/60 year old dismissing computers as "crazy newfangled piece of rubbish". People need to move on. From what I know, Windows 7, especially once it will be moderately patched up through time, will be a worthy successor to XP. Seriously, updating your XP in 2012 will be hemorrhoidal, as we say in Russia. Notably the drivers.
