Been there. Nice to hear that you have a repairman who will reinstall XP
instead of trying to talk you into anything newer. I tried Win7 and Linux and
they were both awful as neither would run all of my older Win98 or WinXP
software properly.
The best things in life are OLD, including:
Old cameras
Old lenses
Old tools
Old bikes
Old airplanes
Old cars
Old houses
Old sailing ships
Old steam locomotives
Old value systems
Old wines
