We'll definitely coordinate on this.  I'm currently designing a series 
of greeting cards to promote and celebrate "Put-A-Bullet-In-A-Dell" Day, 
and will be glad to expand the series to include those that serve the 
same purpose for your "Airstrike On Round Rock" event. 

Microsoft's so-called "downgrade" (I'd consider it an upgrade) is not an 
option for me-- I bought my new laptops three or four months ago-- but 
I've just about decided to either track down a purchasable copy of XP, 
dig through my files, find my old copy, and install it (illegally-- I no 
longer give a damn) in both laptops, or, in a worst case, download a 
pirate copy and do the same (ditto).  Enough is enough, and I'm sick to 
death of having expensive equipment and necessary software compromised 
or made unusable by this unspeakable piece of crap.

I usually purchase new systems every 18 months or so, but this time I 
think it will be less than a year-- and the new ones will be Macs.

As for your observations about DOS, I wholeheartedly concur.  There was 
much to be said for the days in which, in order to run a computer, you 
had to be able to understand a command line.
