They are also just NOT buying. A five year old computer should run email and Office just fine. Maybe get a RAM upgrade or something for $50.

- nikster 14y agoI think its also about Microsoft and how the company has failed to provide any real additional value over a Windows XP machine with Office 2001. My corporate client is running XP with Office 2003 and I really wish they'd stuck with the 2001 edition. Same features, less annoying. Stagnation in innovation is coming back to bite them.
