I hope so too. Whenever I see XP, I start thinking legacy hardware.
Another thought - when you buy from Newegg, you are buying from Newegg. When you buy from Amazon, you could be buying from anyone. Granted, Amazon...

@Helpval40 - you need to start a new thread for your problem. This is about keeping our computers clean of dust and dirt. In that way, you problem...
