Vista Removal Service

     The staff at A&D would like to thank Todd Bishop of seattlepi.com, journalist of a widely read blog covering Microsoft related events. Mr. Bishop recently wrote an article about A&D Computer, after reader Bruce Finlayson sent a photo of A&D's signage advertising our Vista removal service. His blog can be found at http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/microsoft/.

     Vista Removal Service: This service is offered as a way to give customers a choice in the operating system that they want. It is primarily for systems not purchased at A&D, as all of our systems are offered with the choice of Windows XP, Vista, or without an O/S (so that the customer may install his/her own.)

     Big-box stores, however, have decided to force customers up to Microsoft's latest OS, Windows Vista, whether they like it or not. Only a few, select, "business" class systems can be found with the option of XP as an operating system.

     A&D Computer has decided to gives these customers the choice of sticking with the mature operating system of Windows XP. If you are a customer forced into Vista and believed that you had no choice, A&D staff can evaluate your computer to see if it is XP compatible, backup any requested files, and revert back to Windows XP from Vista. Our staff can also explain the pros and cons of going back to XP (of which cons there are very little.)
