Acer to phase out XP?

Notebook Review has an interesting article that my aggregator picked up this morning.
According to the article, Acer is about to “ditch” the Windows XP operating system.
70% of Acer’s notebook shipments in Taiwan are now using the Windows Vista operating system according to Acer’s president of marketing for Taiwan, Calvin Chang. Chang also said that Acer will no longer be shipping notebooks with Windows XP after Q3.
Is the time coming for all us XP die-hards to call it a day?

They need to give us a choice!!! like what Dell did.
I am using an Acer laptop and up to these days, I feel that XP seems to be more reliable than Vista.

I agree with you. I hve win xp and win vista installed in my computers but unfortunately i get lots of problems with vista. Most of the drivers i need to install for the software i am using doesn’t work. Though i like the looks of vista but the most important is the performance. So what i can only do for now is some typing job and gaming. Am planning to reformat my computer and settle for win xp for now.
