With Windows Vsta now being loaded on to the computers in the stores, I am just wondering if there are great clearance sales going on with systems with XP on them.....

No, Bill Gates is busy burying them all in the Arizona desert!

Don't expect any clearances on Windows Vista for awhile, and the reason being that it is not tested fully. If you are looking for a computer with Windows XP then all you have to do is to go onto eBay. New computers sold are going to have the Vista automatically installed.

The windows xp computers that wer sold in the last few months came with a free vista upgrade when it came out. They arent going to put them on sale.

It will most likely be due to the outdated hardware rather than having XP instead of Vista.
Most manufacturers are simply offering free upgrades to Vista on all recently built units shipped with XP.
Personally... I think that's the best deal of all ... you get to choose and aren't stuck with only XP Pro or only Vista.

Do not expect any great deals on computers. Most computers in operation right now are not capable of running Vista, only 15% are, so the retail outlets will be making their money on sales of new computers, not Vista sales. So, do not expect any sales until Thanksgiving.
