Unfortunately there's no way to keep all your files and settings unless you were upgrading from Vista, sure, Easy transfer made my life a tad easier, as did my 1TB harddrive...but there's still a few things that'll take me a long time to find before I can install them again. XD;

Unless it's a laptop, it really doesn't usually act all that old... unless you leave it on all the time. Low-end laptops tend to have a basically guaranteed lifespan of 2-3 years, if they're one of the "bargain" brands like HP. Then the battery starts to go kaput, because only a few companies make laptop batteries, and they mostly keep the truly good ones for their own brand of laptops.

Windows 7 looks really neat, but I can stand XP.

I can get as many copies of Windows 7 Pro for free as I want. I <3 MSDN.

Because they know you'll buy it, so they mark it up. I dunno, Fi. 'Cause it is? And you're importing it from Korea, most likely?
