For the same reason hardly anyone drives around in a Morris Marina. A Bmw M3 does the same job, but face it, the user experience is so much more improved.

I don't buy this head in the sand argument for a minute. It may suit to look down one's nose at something new from Microsoft, but ultimately, if everyone had declared themselves content with 3.1, where would we be now? Where would the investment have come from to develop the technology?

If you're happy with xp, fine, no problem, but I don't see why people should pipe up to denigrate a technology that it seems they haven't experienced for themselves based wholly on the views that what they have is just dandy & it can't be any good because MS are always cocking it up. Strange.
