BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

How aboooot WFW 3.11? Then again, I had a really mean DOS 5.0 machine years ago at a summer intern job....

No seriously, I'd like to hear some good pros/cons of the two systems.

Poor Steve, he'll be too annoyed to post here again. Just install XP and be done with it. [singsong voice]It's got ClearType for your LCD monitor.

Well come on, the differences between Win2K and XP are so small that picking one is personal preferance.

 

[BurnItDwn]

I'm used to and I have no gripes about win2k, so thats where my vote goes,. The best MS OS for me is 2K however, a LOT of people on this forum have grown to accept XP ... so it probably isn't too bad either.

 

[XBoxLPU]

Mac OS X

Oh wait..

 

[PhoenixOfWater]

BeOS

 

[SpeedFreak03]

[kd7fhd]

Not to mention that this question has been beaten to death many times over here.

XP if you are a gamer 2000 otherwise

 

[SteveInTallyFl]

You folks are really great to offer such a variety of useful, meaningful suggestions. Unfortunately I have decided to instal CP/M on this system and be done with it. Command lines rule!

Atleast part of your post had some truth to it.

Whichever one costs you less for a license, regardless of gaming.
