Hmmm....I considered upgrading to Windows 7 from my Windows XP....but maybe I should wait until all the bugs are fixed??

^ Don't be ridiculous! Windows XP also has its fair share of bugs...

There's no such thing as 'bug-free' software.

You might as well upgrade and reap the many benefits of Windows 7.

No, no, stay with XP since it's only getting updates to the most serious threats right now...staying with this legacy operating system will help create job security for hackers.
