    >LOL..... I would like to have a try of beos oneday....just to say I had<

    What's that suppose to mean? But, if you're serious, go to http://free.be.com. Download it for free.

    By "competition", I meant quality-wise. Like BeOS could ever have a business competition with Windows...LOL.

    >Since you tried Win2k Hillbillie<

    Actually, I haven't tried 2000. Why'd you think I have?

    I hope you don’t think I was being detrimental in what I said…I probably will load up BeOs one day just to have a look…but not now as I have already bitten off more than I can chew (computer-wise) recently.

    Wow, but how on earth do you think you can take on Mircosoft. As crap as their os's maybe they still run the IT world.

    What you going to do about that?

    no

    A rare concordance! Champagne, please! Heralds!

    Even if I had the money I wouldn't buy XP Pro.
    It's ridiculously overpriced for whatever improvements there
    might be over Win 2000 Pro.
    If you do buy XP, though, invest in a pair of sunglasses first.
    The new colors will blind you, otherwise.

    No. Wait. Don't hang up!

    This is America calling!
