I'm wondering if anyone is likely to buy it in preference to the current
versions of XP

Well we are making it available to OEMs who can choose to install it or go
with the version of Windows XP containing the additional components and
functionality; as well as I believe making it available via retail channels.
Of course since there may be no price difference you would have to question
why anyone would want to buy a product that lacks functionality and
capability available in an equally priced product.

Thanks for your response.

I suppose stranger things have happened on this planet, than a company being
forced to produce a product that no-one will buy.
