Well once I install SuSe Linux, I highly doubt XP would even be close to it. I can't wait... I am gonna install it today...

Personally, I like 2000 Pro more than XP.

No, not the original. I haven't used the original in over three years, and I don't intend to start using it ever again.

Enter the AD-FREE zone

I use XP Pro on my laptop,
P4m 1.6GHz


an upgraded XP Pro (from Win98SE) on my computer
P3 550MHz

Both have 256MB of RAM and 32MB of video RAM.

... and I have this cheap Windows for Workgroups 3.11 (notice the extra '1'). I use this one for my old DOS games.

(Be ready to be floored by these stats!)

P90MHz
8MB EDO RAM (Oh, the good ol' days)
2MB Video Card (Cirrus Logic.... eat your heart out nVidia! )
8x CD-ROM Drive
a 3" and 5" Floppy drives
A 512MB Hard Drive
A 15" monitor with a 12" viewable screen
A keyboard with the function keys on the left (that makes real noises! *clink* *clink* *clink*
A three button mouse!
And of course, a generic Sound Blaster sound card.

Eat your heart out with that one!!!

windows 98. I have never had problems until recently. I'm still not sure what to do about it.

But after my last windows problem (as a result of that xupiter thing), I was glad to have DOS so I could save my files.

Does ME have DOS on it? I cannot live without DOS.

Funny, because that's what the splash screen says. It's one of those Win3.1 type WinNTs.
