Idontwantspam Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 What I think some people tend to forget is the Windows XP is essentially Windows 2000 with a pretty shell and --SOME-- updated stuff. They're not really all that different. Win2K = Windows NT 5.0, WinXP = Windows NT 5.1. yes, windows 2000 would run a little bit faster, but not much. Stick with XP is my recommendation as well.

scott14 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Erik,Why spend all that money on Vista when your XP rig is running well?I'm sticking with XP for awhile. Someday instead of Vista I may try Suse Linux instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someday instead of Vista I may try Suse Linux instead.Well I'm actually pretty curious about Vista because the opinions on it are so mixed. But I guess it would be wiser to wait until I decide to buy a new computer. From what I have heard about it so far the "Vista Experience" is the best with atleast a dual core processor and an expensive GPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linux is more..... robust. It will allow you to do the things that Windows won't because Bill doesn't like us playing with all the toys in the play pen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
