Let's face the facts.
It's already that far that you need 'patching' it to be able to run it on the newest hardware. If you look at the development of hardware you will need to rewrite it to get it working fine and to take advantage of the newer chips. So in the end it wouldn't be XP anymore, it would become something between XP and Vista, we've seen that before, remember WinME? And honnestly, I think I will wait a bit and look how it turns out before installing the sp3 pack. More, what's the use of buying a new PC if you install an old OS on it that can't take benefit of the updated hardware? It's not only MS, it's also the hardware manufacturors that should write the appropiate XP drivers for the newest chips. And XP doesn't need to be 'saved', it will not become obsolete so soon. Don't like Vista? Simply keep your old PC then and stay on XP.
