I have XP as well and love it. Sooo much better than their other stuff. I
find many people do not like it though, but they share the common
characteristic of not trying it ;-)

Bill,
Give XP a fair chance. It is actually an outstanding and reliable operating
system. It's roots are NT4, with the advantages of the 2000 fixes and
plug-n-play. Just turn off the cartoon GUI and go back to the look of NT4
and you should be happier.
Sure supports a lot more hardware.
