karohemdAre there any manufacturers who still offer laptops/notebooks with Windows XP?
ETA: I have odd requirements for a laptop:
- reasonably compact: Not widescreen (which is where most fail), and not bigger than 15" (so it fits in my backpack), light, reasonable battery
- Lots of processor crunch and memory so it can deal with huge RAW photos
- Vista takes up too much of the former already so I'd rather have the power available to apps. (and a familiar OS)

I know it's supposed to be a processor-hog, but i'm pretty sure you can turn all the fancy stuff off and make it more streamlined?
Also, i loved all the Acer software it came with. All very easy to use.
