there is a choice between four options if you
continue to stick with Windows. is
month’s cover story lays out the case for XP,
Vista,7 or 8.
We complete 8 successful years this
month. A big ‘ank You’ to all our readers
and well wishers. We hope to continue being
your friendly guide to technology, for years to
come.
