Dell plans to keep XP offered as an operating system past Microsoft's June 30th deadline, but will do so by increasing the price. Vista Business and Ultimate editions allow the option to downgrade to XP, and later the users can upgrade to Vista again when they are ready. Dell has an offer to do this for it's customers on several laptop lines, but it requires the user to pay the upgrade from Vista Home to Business and Ultimate. In addition, Dell is adding an extra "Bonus" charge for it's Vostro machines that add not good to the deal, and is not even offering it for its Inspiron line, it's best selling line of Laptops. There might be a few lines that are free "Dell’s 630 and 720 H2C desktops and the M1730 notebook", but there has of yet been no announcement about those.
