Biased?

Dear Peter,

Thanks for your Talkback and the breakdown of your upgrade decision-making. You could be forgiven for being surprised by the results of this survey - we at ZDNet UK were.

The survey, conducted by us with no outside parties involved, was pretty surprising. Before we commissioned it, we thought that most readers would have made the same calculations that you did and would come away with the same conclusions. However, it seems that there is a genuine desire to upgrade to Vista out there.

We are still digging into the reasons and will be contacting some of the survery respondents to find out what their motivation is.

In the meantime - if you would like to see ZDNet UK's opnion on this survey - then check out our Leader article here

Many thanks

So if you upgrade to XP SP3 you can't uninstall Internet Explorer, I'm quite sure I'm having a Deja-vu feeling about MS preventing people from uninstalling Internet Explorer in other Windows products.
