I work for a major international bank, in application testing and deployment. At the moment 99.9% of our new computers run XP and still come with an XP licence. We have a number of Vista test machines but that's about it. As far as I know most of the banking industry has not moved to Vista, and is probably a long way from being ready to make the move. My GF works for a large law firm (2500 staff across the UK) and again, their platform is XP and will be for some time. Just who is buying Vista?

Let me restate my first point: Over 30 countries currently have troops in Iraq, working with the US and UK commands, mainly as 'peacekeeping' forces in Baghdad and other cities. These other countries didn't have forces there at the start of the war, but they are there now. So, perhaps only four countries participated in the 'invasion of Iraq', but now many more want to help Iraq get through this situation, and have sent their soldiers.
