I'm glad there are beta testers for this stuff.

During her years at CNET News, Ina Fried has changed beats several times, changed genders once, and covered both of the Pirates of Silicon Valley. These days, most of her attention is focused on Microsoft. E-mail Ina.

Just noticed that in the link, one must wonder why that is important to mention

I have now had xp mode for a few days....went rather well.
Only bump I had along the way was the patch update at the end...a couple tries and all is well.
Thanks again

Anyone know why XP mode uses IE6, and no upgrades to IE7 or 8 show up in Windows update?

I got it installed on my desktop successfully, wish it worked for my Laptop.

I dont have 6...the updates took care of it on my end
