Is there any reason you seem to be starting all of these flame-bait topics and not ever coming back to post in them, or do you just not have anything productive to add to the actual conversation??? It would be nice if you actually decided to join a conversation instead of starting a topic then running. Need a few examples of your pattern???

In General Hardware a nice cross post of this one. Why does that belong in General Hardware anyway???

XP on a typical 1995 computer would be very very slow(P1 100mhz, 16mb ram, 1Gig hard drive, 14.4K modem, + $50 for 4MB of edo ram). Also, Microsoft kinda didn't know the World Wide Web existed til 1996 so the whole XP/.Net thing would have been impossible for them in 95.

Yea but if Win 95 would have been as stable as 2000 / XP Bill Gates would have more loyal followers than the Pope !
Unfortunate for him it was a piece of sh!t , as is 98 and ME so BillyBoy has about as many enemies as OJ Simpson....
He got it right this time tho........

OK you can flame now LinuxMonkeyboy.....

Ill take that as directed towards me. Why would I flame you? I have not seen XP nor have I used win2k. So no flames here. Hopefully Windows XP makes EVERY other OS so out of date we all quit trying. Then I can put windows on my sparc!
