Oh, I prefer Win2K professional. It's stable, minimal, and complete. It does (mostly) everything I want it to do, and nothing more. I've used XP before, but it just felt too bloated for my liking.
MINIMIAL!!! considering the default install is about 10 times the size of my linux install (with Xwindows installed as well) I would not call the minimal.Originally posted by Eibro

The word rap as it applies to music is the result of a peculiar phonological rule which has stripped the word of its initial voiceless velar stop.
What's the default size of your linux install anyway?Originally posted by squid

you can have a linux fit on a floppy and run on less than 4mb of ram, if your insane. redhat can be from less than 1/2GB to something like 3GB. but with linux distros they throw in alot of software.What's the default size of your linux install anyway?
it would be like ms giving you windows and office and other crap. but you have a choice with windows stuff.
Run all my games on it. Don't use an emulator.Originally posted by squid

ME, and millions of other people like their XP.
Main reasons are.
Comes in a nice box.
Works ok.
Installs ok.
Does what they want it to do.
They dont give a flying (ooer) about 'making it do something else'.
Other hardware works (usually) without fault.
Games work on it.
Its not called a silly name.
Doesnt involve penguins.
Not saying Linux may well be a lot bigger in future, just saying it has a hell of a way to go to.
Smile
Such is life.
> ME, and millions of other people like their XP.
Same here. Runs what I want, runs quickly, and runs stable (that's right - stable. I can't recall a specific instance of the actual OS dying in the year and a half I've been running it)

the only thing i hate about xp is the fact there is no dos.
no blood, duke nukem, for need for speed!!!
i tried some of the tsr and patches, i think ill go for a tri boot(98 se).
i wonder how many programs will br broke after the next one(when they cut down teh api)...
Oh yeah, because no DOS is a horrible, horrible thing. So you can't play older games without an emulator, big deal. Getting away from DOS was a great move.
As for the cut down of the API...I don't like the sound of it, but I can't know what it will be like until it happens.
