Anyone in this day and age that would actually rather run Windows 98 than Vista deserves whatever happens to them.
Indeed. You're absolutely right. XP better than Vista in security, even with Vista's UAC off? Ridiculous... and Windows 7 really is just a new version of Vista that people seem to like more. At the core it's pretty much the same thing.
I've never liked Windows XP. I never really regretted sticking with ME instead of upgrading to it, and waited to get a new computer until Vista came out.
