Although I totally agree with everyones' sentiment on MS, and personally on XP, I've had only ONE problem with xp. I use XP professional, I've never had a stop screen, I've never even seen a configuration wizard save for during setup and right afterwards, and I have seen no major upsetting defects with the operating system. I've ran Linux releases, some novell, and other MS operating systems, and I must say, that I've found XP the simplest for me to use. It allows me to do everything I need to do, I -run- the operating system, it doesn't run me. Windows NT was great, save for lack of modern hardware support. 2k was great, but for somereason, it didn't much like my PCI IDE controllers, and my SCSI RAID controllers... I was running win2k Advanced Server, and had SOOO many problems; albeit, it was from registry tweaking and overclocking, I don't have those problems in XP. XP's graphically slower with all its' enchancements, sometimes I have to wait 10 seconds for a program to open when I'm running alot of bandwidth intensive applications, but the only true problem I have is my second NIC. Although I've downloaded the latest drivers for my second NIC, that are supported by windows XP, XP will not recognize ANY drivers as being for the hardware. -shrugs- Thats' the only problem I've ever had with xp.
