I loved XP as well.  That was one reason that I found Ubuntu 9.x/10.x 
had a similar look/feel with the GNOME desktop environment back in late 
2009 and early 2010, when I bought my first "default desktop that did 
not have any OS installed when I bought it new. When Ubuntu went to 
Unity, I looked into the MATE desktop. That is what I use with a Ubuntu 
14.04 -  crashes when I try to install 16.04 - and 16.04 for most of the 
other systems.

For Windows, I also wanted to keep XP for as long as possible.  I even 
have a XP SP3 DVD with many licenses from computers that I have scrapped 
over the year.  My old HP laptop was XP.  My next one had VISTA - yuck.  
I upgraded it to Win7.  The next laptop has Win7 installed.  Those 
laptops then went to Win10 on the Windows partition and Ubuntu 16.04 on 
their Linux partitions.  My newest laptop [ASUS 17"] has only Ubuntu, 
since Windows 10 [came with] would over heat playing videos - streaming 
or local.  Ubuntu sometimes gets a little hot, but not to 180° F, or 
even hotter, like Win10 does all the time and then freezes due by being 
too hot.

The last MS Office I uses was version 2003.  Then I switched to 
OpenOffice.org as my default office "system".  When LibreOffice had its 
first release version to the general public.  I have never looked back.  
Currently, I do not install the first version[s] of LO's lines [5.0.0, 
5.2.0, 5.3.0, etc.] anymore, but I keep installing later versions.
