I have made only one "maintenance" call on him this year and that was a repair/upgrade in the music/CD playing software.

XP has been a champ at maintaining a stable platform. Vista was more like WinME Part 2.
The same here. Though, my mother has now Vista. And she's always complaining about it (she knew her way fairly well in XP).

All our machines at home are XP, except our file/db/web-server. That one is running Win2K3.
