I've been hearing some pretty nasty stories about hardware (including desktop hardware) not working with XP. This is a problem for me because I'm gonna pick up a prebuild but I don't know what doesn't have any XP support and I refuse to use Vista(mainly on principle but there is also software I use that doesn't work well/if at all with vista).

So if anyone knows I would greatly appreciate the information.
 
As far as I know if it was made in the last 5 years it should work in xp (except server grade hardware, sometimes theres no drivers for it).
 
I'm not just talking about it working. Maybe I wasn't clear enough. I meant the hardware that doesn't have any xp drivers. It's usually the new stuff and I know at least a few laptops don't work in XP. I'm just worriedabout getting cornholed into Vista.
 
usually it is the older stuff,hardware and programs that do not work well.when buying look at box to see if it is xp compatabile,of course.now,as for vista,you may get it whether you want it or not.micosoft will stop selling to vendors sometime in 2008.peace
ps scout around if you know what hardware you might need
