I still have XP SP3 on my "desktop" (technically a nettop) ... it doesn't have enough RAM to upgrade to 7. If it reaches a point where I can no longer run XP on it, then I'll be running Mageia Linux.

While I'm personally sticking with 7, there's no reason anyone has to upgrade from XP, just because MS is no longer updating it. If it works for you, and does everything you need it to, then that's all that matters. It's the same advice I give customers of mine who ask how often they should upgrade their PC. It's when it no longer does what they need it to do. Likewise with upgrading your OS.

Bad advice. The various security features of each Win OS (a significant percentage---probably the majority---of which the average user is unaware of) have for years been superior to their predecessors. That alone is reason enough to upgrade.
