Win2k rocks. XP does not. I would say what I really think about it but profanity is a no-no on this board.

What makes you not like XP?
I like it just because I can be lazy, I normally use 2k, but XP auto config's everything =)

WinXP seems so slow compared to Win2k

also win2k has SP3 wich means its more secure and reliable then XP.

XP hogs too much ram. When I had XP, it would take more ram at startup with no programs running than win2k running apache, mysql, and rage3d tweak.
