I just want to point out that you are assuming that XP is the base and oldest OS in the wild. It isn't. Not by a long shot.

There are older OSes (Win2000, WinME, OS X pre-Tiger) and those need to upgrade to at least XP or Tiger to run the latest Firefox.
I would love to live a financial life where I was able to upgrade my whole computer as regularly as you assume is the norm, but I don't have the financial resources for it. The $500 computer has to last me nearly 10 years. And it has. (pats her 2001 Sony Vaio running a recent upgrade to XP from ME)
