Which Windows to get...ME or XP?

<< ME will make no difference at all if you already have Win9X.
XP is the best choice by far. >>



HAHA.

Xp or W2k, W2k will have better compaibility with certain buring programs than XP in my experience.

Using both now for program compaibiltiy right now.

Are you planing to buy or steal XP/ME?

If you want stability, and driver support, W2K is seasoned and does not require "phone home". Xp has drivers up the wazzo,hence the OS issomewhat bloated,but that just takes up more HDD space. The OS still boots faster then W2K.

Me is not the crap others have been saying. When installed properly, it works quite well. I do not recommend WinME as an upgrade, only a clean install. Most who experince problems with ME are the ones who did an upgrade.

All in all, I give a thumbs up for W2K Pro, and a hmmmmmm for XP, although I am using XP Pro now and I've grown quite fond of the functionality. A bit of a learning curve getting all things set to work the way I want it to, but that goes with the territiry. I'm a 52 year old geek.


Edit: On second thought, since you have admitted to obtaining an illegal copy of the OS , Why don't you leave while you have a chance? If you need support, call 1 800 RU legit.
I despise people like you.:|

This has got to be a joke, right?

ME is simply the WORST OS Microsoft ever released.

XP, hands down.

XP. I wouldn't even consider ME, or even 98!

I'm using XP pro myself. For the hell of it, I did an upgrade of my 2000 system without reformatting. It actually worked without any problems of it's own, and it fixed an issue I had with my IDE CD-RW. I don't think I'm going to bother reformatting at all.

Linux. It's free so you don't have to worry about downloading Windows Xp.

Get XP.

 

[Whitecloak]

XP

 

[XMan]

Isn't 2000 Pro with all the service packs and IE6 basically the same thing as XP?

 

[toant103]

XP

Buy XP.

Why do you even consider running ME? It's got to be the most unstable Windows ever released.

Now that's funny. I no longer have any interest in his decision to use ME or XP. But I doubt he's going to figure out how to get it installed anyway....
