It seems as though I'm asking more computer related questions here on BITOG in the last two months than oil related questions!

But it's all good, because I'm learning quite a bit and that's what counts! Now, on to the question...........

I've seen recent posts about Windows 7 beta having been released. I've also received advice to hold off on purchasing a laptop to replace my AMD Athlon/1GB RAM HP desktop until July, when Windows 7 will be released.

Does this mean support for XP will be dropped in the near future (i.e., two years or less)? And if "7" is the new O/S, when will they drop Vista support?

I was going to purchase a new set of Office 2007 Pro for my new desktop (Vista). I'm hoping Vista software will be compatible with the "7" O/S.
 
Support days for XP will be numbered once W7 is RTM.

Usually MS is good about being backwards compatible with old stuff. I remember when I tested Vista that Office XP still worked.
