since my new processor has hyperthreading, i kinda need XP. I was pissed off about this, and I still do prefer 2kpro, but xp hasn't really pissed me off that much. Microsoft made a good choice by making it run off of nt like 2k. Granted, I had to kill a lot of defaults to make it comfortable, but isn't that the whole point?
I guess my point is that XP proves my philosophy of microsoft. They actually make good products, OS's are complicated, and of course they are going to have some bugs. Don't hate microsoft because of BSOD's and illegal errors! Hate it for good reasons, like the fact that I am expected to pay for XP again every three times i reformat (naturally, I have a pirated copy), or the fact that the only reason I'm using xp is because intel did microsoft a favor. in other words, hate the corporation!
