Yeah, and for 50 dollars, XP owners who game can finally upgrade and use DX10, and all the modern features they missed when they skipped Vista. Vista owners, for 50 bucks, can increase the speed of their computer, and get some more streamlined new features.

50 dollars is the right price.

You know, you might consider shedding some light on these new features if you want anyone to give a damn about them.

And from what I've read, W7 breaks backwards compatilibity with older programs even worse than Vista does, and as a (retro) gamer this is a deal breaker for me. So I'm sticking with the older stuff for the time being.

Just curious, where have you read that it breaks compatibility worse than Vista? It doesn't make any sense to me that it would. Also, if you have a version that has the Windows XP virtual machine, then it should be compatible with the same things XP is too, so depending on how retro, you may still need DosBox or programs like it sometimes, but even XP needs it sometimes.
