Meinte, I don't understand your aggression towards the postings here.

Are you unable or unwilling to understand? TYPO3 goes great lengths in 
order to work in a lot of environments, whereas Microsoft does not give 
a shit about users of other than their own software. TYPO3 has 
traditionally been very Windows-friendly (the RTE still works only in 
IE/Win) but I don't understand why we should put any efforts in 
supporting an operating system that even MS has abandoned for a long 
time now. (although I still doubt that the OS plays any role here)

What are you talking about, or a you just yelling at random people here? 
Which feature does not work in XP? Are you talking about running TYPO3 
on XP, or looking at TYPO3-rendered websites with XP?

If you're just posting this rubbish here in order to piss people off, 
well done. You managed to ignored my *IF* clause, and you accused the 
TYPO3 devs (and extension authors) of writing bad, Windows-unfriendly 
software.

Screw you.
