as a programmer, I stuck to XP because .NET 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, and 4.0 all worked well enough on it. only reason to upgrade to win7 was to switch off 32 bit machines and thus avoiding the y2k38 bug and to access certain programming tools only offered on 64 bit machines (from a programming point of view). Security is another reason, but I am not talking about that.
