Starter for 10 -

Pros:
  • It works.
  • Properly.

Cons:
  • Possibly hard to get drivers for XP (research before taking the plunge).
  • Version 10 of directX not released for XP.
  • You have to buy a full licensed copy of XP Pro (you can't transfer an OEM license), and there are no downgrade rights from V-HB.
  • Time and effort involved in installing and transferring your applications and settings.

I'm sure others will build on this!
