    XP Pro for me ! It'S been a long time since I last upgraded, and XP is a great OS upgrade, from Win98 or ME. I just can't stand the new interface !

    the second edition crashed often but that was every other day or so.

    If I had to choose an upgrade ? Which one: 2K or XP? I see their about the same price!

    Honestly, the only crashes I have, are the ones I bring on myself with outrageous settings! I do realize it's time to upgrade though!

    I think WinME is gonna loose this battle.
    I use XpPro. I like it. So far it's been very stable.
    And Microsoft made it... Wierd.

    I haven't been too keen on MS operating systems for sometime but I have to say at this time for all around general usage, XP is very good. If Linux could ever get the Hardware support that MS gets from the MFG's then I would vote Linux (Mandrake or RedHat) hands down.
