        I honestly can’t think of a single thing that XP can do and R2 cannot.

          16-Bit (“Legacy”) Apps is the only thing that I can think of, but those could most likely run in a Windows XP Virtual Machine if need to. Most people don’t need to use 16-Bit apps as far as I know. 16-Bit apps won’t run because R2 is 64-Bit only – make sure your computer can handle it. Run SecurAble if you are not sure.

              Ah yes, good point. Additionally, a few 32-bit apps might have 16-bit installers.
