    How 'old' is your current Windows installation?

    To get the exact date that Windows was installed on your PC (for XP), just hit:
    > Windows key + R
    > Type "cmd" without the quotes
    > Type "systeminfo" without the quotes
    > You'll get a huge amount of info about your PC, including the date it was "born".

    I'm just reinstalling XP today - I only got about 10 months from my last install before things started to slow down.

    I want to see who's got the oldest working Windows install.
