Playable on XP?

Well, according to the D3 official system requirements you need Windows 7 to play...

Sadly, while I meet all the technical requirements, I'm stuck with Win XP SP3 atm and for the foreseeable future because the software I work at home with is XP only (don't ask.)

So my question is, if any techie knows, will I be able to work around this? As I recall 7 shares the same core architecture as XP so will I stil be able to play it?... Or is there a way to install 7 and retain full XP compatibility so I can use the same PC for work as well as D3? Obviously the second option is not as cool as the first one because I'd probably have to reboot my comp to the new OS every time I want to take a break from work...

    Lol, they updated the page like 5 minutes after I posted the OP lol!

    The former one clearly didn't list XP, it was WIn7 only...

    Talk about precise timing, man... Anyways, good news.

    Even if it didn't run under Win XP, you could set up an XP/Win 7 dual boot.

    Logic, my dear, merely enables one to be wrong with great authority.
