Q. It's time to upgrade my 2-year-old computer, but I really don't want to use Windows Vista on a new PC. Is it possible to have Windows XP installed on a newer machine? A tech at Circuit City seemed to say that several features of new computer chips would not be recognized by XP, and that I'd be buying a bigger, faster computer that would not work faster. Is that really the case?
