A recent poll by The Inquirer asked, "Which operating system will you use after Windows XP support ends on 8 April?"

Among respondents, 33 percent said they will move to Windows 7, 17 percent will stick with XP, 13 percent will switch to Linux, 11 percent will get Windows 8, and 5 percent said OS X.

So most will switch to Windows 7, but many would rather stay with Win XP without support than switch to Linux.

    Editors, please edit.

    That happened. My title, as submitted, was
    Poll: More Will Switch to Linux Than to Visduh8
    ...and both you and the GP seem to be unaware of the limit on the length of article titles.
