Just did  ;D
The main problem with this upgrades is because of the council cuts, county councils had not spent any money on windows as they could spend it somewhere else.
Now windows XP is on it's death bed, many councils around here don't have the money  to upgrade so it will be interesting to see how long it take before they finally upgrade to a secure platform (although the secure platform could be near it's end of its life  :doh:)
