Bah, you're supposed to tell me it's going to be alright!

I suppose I could dual boot, but I'm looking to replace 98, not run 2 OS's. I will probably just end up reverting back for now, and when I eventually get that 200 gig HDD, I'll dual boot with Linux and XP.

Here's my challenge to Microsoft though....if you are going to sell a system as an upgraded version, make sure it's going to continue to work with/ and or have support for programs that worked on the previous dominant system. Never had an issue upgrading from 95 at all, why should I expect to deal with a Mac OSX problem from the compatibility leader?

there's gotta be a work around though, because it is pointing to an issue with the new way XP deals with multiple users. Perhaps if I deleted the other users from the profile?
