As for Microsoft 'toying' with X-Pression for the new Windows 7 operating

see them using a name that in anyway resembles XP.

An MVP that broke the NDA would quickly be shown the door.

Yes, I have both Premium and Ultimate running flawlessly on two
machines, but in my 15 years with Microsoft I find that the previous
operating system-XP, is far easier, much more user friendly and also
very tolerant of user errors, I'm afraid the same cannot be said about
Vista. As I have stated in an earlier post, Vista is Microsofts biggest
mistake ever. And at this very moment, Microsoft are working on ANOTHER
OS to replace Vista.

released, but then history always repeats itself..

Yes, I agree, But Vista is not being supported by the major software
companies because it is so bug ridden, this is also true for many of the
major printer/scanner companies as well, they are refusing to write
drivers for Vista, and with the sales of XP outselling Vista by 3-1,
vista will soon be history. But as for "started work on the next OS"
Microsoft have been developing the new OS since just 2 months after the
launch of Vista. They could see even then that vista was a huge mistake.
It is losing them millions.
The new OS is based more on XP, although obviously it has a new look to
it, with a much more secure framework, It will include IE-8 but they have
done away with windows mail and opted for Outlook Express v10. PLUS it
has the added benefit that ALL XP software and hardware will be FULLY
compatible. Vista shall not be with us for much longer I can assure you.
Microsoft are getting ready to offer all those who have purchased vista
and are able to send them the original disk along with the correct
activation code, a free upgrade. Looking at it's progress, I would think
it should be launched early next year. The name they are toying with at
the moment is Microsoft X-Pression, wether or not they will call it that
when it's finished remains to be seen. I have a copy of it running on one
of my PC's and to be honest it is quite good. It certainly leaves vista
standing in terms of speed and ease of use. Plus it looks great, that I
must admit. Myself, I am working on the networking side of it, it has
done away with all that crap that vista has, and the networking
interface/setup looks remarkably similar to windows98 lol.

Notwithstanding the fact that Microsoft has openly claimed that the new one
will be based around Vista, and not XP as claimed by Vangelis. He seems to
be better at predicting the future than he is at reading the past..

Yes, I certainly would be shown the door, that is of course if they could

I couldn't even trace it myself, and I posted it.
The name X-Pression is high on the list, along with a few others. And as

Sorry Vangellis you have just lost your credibility. Microsoft is quite
capable of tracking your postings and locating your ISP source. Your blatant
disregard for the rules that Microsoft impose makes me wonder if indeed you
are even remotely connected with Microsoft. Why would they still use the
remnants of XP, why would they dump Windows Mail in favour of Outlook
Express they would be going backwards, not forwards.

From your original postings I had began to wonder if you wanted to add MVP
to your somewhat impressive list of credentials, but being a so called
Microsoft employee you've got no chance, but then you already know that,
don't you.

I'm not in the slightest bothered about "credibility" although you seem to
think a few letters after your signature mean the world, they don't. They
mean nothing at all to the layman.
And as far as Microsoft tracking my location, even the FBI could not trace
my position. Do you honestly think I, or anybody else for that matter would
post exclusive news about Microsoft on here if I thought for one moment I
could be traced?
And you call yourself an MVP. If you are indeed a MVP then you should know
that by going through various proxy's and different servers using a hidden
ISP address in stealth mode would make it impossible to trace, especially if
you change your ISP address and use different proxies every few days like I
do.

My reference to credibility has nothing to do with the so called few letters
after your name. (You're the one with the string of credentials after your
name, not me). You gain credibility by posting honest, practical answers to
other posters questions/queries. I have gained my credibility over 8 years
as an MVP and am proud of my contribution to this and many other newsgroups.

I certainly don't have to hide behind a proxy server like you seem to
prefer. As for posting 'exclusive' news about Microsoft, you haven't posted
anything exclusive all you have done is told everyone that the new version
of windows is more than likely to be called X-Pression (Strange that
Microsoft should use a similar name to their current web/design software
'Expression')

I find it strange that, for someone who has worked for Microsoft for 15
years, you are quick to knock them and their current operating system. I
haven't yet spoken to a Microsoft employee who has openly disparaged any
operating system - yes they will say 'it has faults' but they wouldn't be
recommending users to go back to older version of the windows product range;
far from it, they would be asking 'what problems are you experiencing' and
trying to work through to a solution.

From what I understand the OP is quite satisfied with Vista Ultimate. His
question was simply should he change from 32 bit to 64 bit. That question
I have answered. Why would he even bother with XP? I can understand your
comments if he had stated that Vista wasn't working for him, but 'it is'
working for him.
