 Mac Lover, Windows hater, but.... June 16, 2008

Windows XP is actually a good product. I purchased the full version of XP to load onto my new iMac so that the wife can do some work at home (the program for work is Windows only). I was impressed with the plug-and-play that actually recognized new hardware immediately, without the the old Windows way of going to "adding hardware," then loading drivers, etc. Our computers at work use XP, so I know it's a pretty stable platform... much more than all prior Windows platforms, with the exception of NT which was awesome. I also like the fact that it didn't come with all of the loaded junk that comes on a pre-installed PC. I thought that I would loath myself for installing it on and tainting my iMac, but I actually find myself being content with using it and I think I really have the best of both worlds having Windows and Mac OS X on one computer. PS. the only reason that it's not 5 stars is because it's Windows. LOL

I purchased this to use on my MACBook. Being a MAC person, I was afraid of getting VISTA, glad I was able to get the XP version.
 WINDOWS COPYRIGHT PROTECTION June 5, 2008

Although I try to use Mac applications exclusively, I purchased Windows so that I can run work related Windows only applications in my iMac and MacBook. I use the MacBook for traveling or when I am away from my iMac so there is little opportunity to run the same program simultaneously on both machines. After calling customer service, I was EXTREMELY disappointed to learn that due to copyright protection I was unable to load Windows on both my machines without purchasing a second license at a cost equal to the price of the original software. Obviously, I refused to purchase a second license and will do without.
Here's the flaw in the business model. Had the customer rep said a second license cost $40 I probably still would have been pissed but I would have paid it. Instead, I chose not to buy the second license for $189 so MS didn't get its asking price, they didn't get what I was willing to pay, and they created a very dissatisfied customer who would now never consider buying Windows again. The ultimate Lose-Lose scenario.

Product is great - works just like it should. Arrived quickly - like it should. I wish I didn't have to buy it twice, however. I first tried to purchase it from Tech For Less on Amazon - I received an OEM version with no product key. Received no replacement or refund from that seller. So I had to purchase it AGAIN - I chose to purchase it from Amazon, expecting that they would at least honor their own refund policy. Too bad they don't back up the sellers' return policies they let 'sell' on their site.

If you are like us we got fed up with the growing pains of Microsoft Vista. We decided it was high time to invest in a full version of Windows XP before they stopped selling them. It has proven to be a wise decision for us. Our son is back to playing all of his computer games on his new system without any glitches.
