I just went back to XP from Seven last month in my home computer (4GB Ram). I'm with you. - Things I got back with XP: Sound 3D acceleration in video games. I can force v-sync in my AMD video card. The keyboard multimedia keys work again. Great performance for more software. - Things I had to add to make XP usable: Launchy RocketDock Some tool to make the Win+left and Win-right keys work like Win7. - Things I miss: The launch lists. The percentage completion indicator in the taskbar. I still have a Win7 machine with 8GB Ram at work, so I can compare both every day. My next machine will be Win7 too. But with much beefier hardware, to make it worth it.
