to some ppl, xp is sweet, to others xp is rubbish
at times xp is stable as heck
but its rubbish to me, reformatting every month or 2 is a pain when i have hundreds of megs to back up each time
i talked to my dad bout getting a computer today n i might end up getting a G4 imac instead of an emac, but we'll see...
xp isnt that good for movies n such
u need to find 3rd party software for dvd playing, wimp takes up so much resources (not as much as wimp7 for windows 98 tho), xp takes up less resources than 98 but it still crashes, i've had times when my ftp folders crashed explorer lol, but ie never crashes explorer, just itself
