In the days gone by in the history of my business, the theatre, it used to be common practice for plays to post up showbills with “Limited Engagement,” then “Last Weeks,” “Final Performance,” and then “Absolute Final Peformance.” Of course if the box office was good, they’d be followed by “Extended by Popular Demand” and the cycle would start all over again.

The Life and Times Windows XP is a grand saga that seems to be returning to those days of yore. Users and OEMs just can’t seem to let go. Earlier this week, Dell had started charging extra if you wanted to downgrade to XP, now it looks like they’ve reversed course on that until at least June 26 on select configurations.
