well said, i have been running XP since october last year and has only crashed twice i think, and i do use proggys that strain H/W

although i am running 384MB of RAM which is enough so that it "Doesn't crash when it wants"

i have installed two pieces of hardware as and when i wanted - CD-RW and 128MB RAM and these didn't even cause XP goblins to kick up a fuss about adding new hardware, i think XP is not good if you update your systems H/W (i.e. all of it) every month or so.

I've *never* had my XP blue screen or hang...

"if you have at least a 400MHz machine with 256MB of RAM, Windows XP will run faster on your system than will Windows 2000. (Independent benchmark tests indicate that Windows XP delivers 34 percent better performance when installed on a new PC than does Windows 2000. Average application access time is also 21 percent faster.)"
