will you switch your XP and buy Windows 7, or (god forbid) buy Vista just to use IE9 ? a lot of XP users will stop using their IE7 or IE8 because of security issues that come with an old browser ... and try google chrome or firefox.

A lot of people are switching to other browsers anyways. This will have practically zero effect. I don't think you can even buy Vista anymore. And why would you? People that keep XP are the same people that kept IE 6 or IE 7 until they are forced to change anyways. The number of XP users is dropping the number of Win 7 users is growing. In fact I expect Windows 7 user to pass XP users by mid 2011.
