Well I for one love Windows XP from a job point of view it’s the best thing Microsoft could have done for me. The networking is simple yet very powerful and yes I know it has some security holes in it but they really are nothing to be concerned over (there about as bad as win2k was at launch and there are loads of fixes out there for them already). Put it this way if a real hacker wants in there nothing going to stop him apart from maybe another hacker are servers in work have been hacked 2 times in the last year.
As for crash’s we are about half way towards completing the roll out of windows XP in work from Win2k and we have already seen a small drop in the number of reported crashes to the PC help desk (this is all going on well we are installing new computers and network routers).

From the home point of view well let’s just say I think every one with an ok PC should get this OS (By the way I have never used the home version of XP). It’s ease to use whether you use classic or the new settings (I find the new lay out much better). It does not crash half as much as 98 or ME and I would even go as far as saying it’s a bit better then 2K plus it plays all the new game. If you do have a cable modem XP will set it up as soon as you plug it in and turn it on and internet sharing is just one simple click of the button.

Overall it’s got to be a good thing I have got almost all of my friends now running XP and not one of them is unhappy with it and believe me they would go on forever if they did not like it.



Oh and here’s a cool site for window XP tweaks http://www.tweaktown.com/document.ph...=guide&dId=120
