Which is weird because XP isn't much more than a slightly prettier version of 2000

You can't get blood from a rock. There's no sense running XP then.....

XP 64 bit vs. Vista 64 bit = Vista wins.

No offence, but thats a very n00bish thing to say. Most people on this site are running Vista.

I personally think its a huge improvement over XP.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion!

I personally think(don't laugh) that Windows 98SE was the best Windows OS ever. Not many people agree with me on that, but you know

Windows 7 IS for all intents and purposes.... Vista. Its built on the Vista kernal, it looks like Vista. Its just a streamlined version of Vista with a few minor tweaks.

And on a second note, I used ME for almost two years and never had a problem with it.

Why not just install Windows 2k on there? Or DSL Linux? 98 is pretty arcane these days.
