Maybe it's because I'm a 'low-level' PC user (mainly MS Office) but in my experience Windows XP is a terrific product. Software has never ever let me down, and the free regular software updates are great aswell. I got myself a 4MB ADSL dataconnection the other day that required a new modem etc. Remembering how the installation of my former modem went, I expected the worst. Job was done in less than five minutes, and has worked flawlessly ever since. I know that Apple is a great product, but no complaints from me on Windows XP.
