Spotted this link to a review of the much-discussed Windows XP. Anyone who's interested in where the next generation of the Windows OS is going should check this out. |

It's a very short 'bad' list.. missing key things like: Breaks WinAMP and REALPlayer, so you are locked in to using MS's Media player which will probably have tight content management.. and breaks your current disk tools. |

IF u get the new one to install cuzx there is a certainb installation precedure! like th e first u boot up u MUST press F8! and go into Safe mode orelse u have to do the entire thing again... if u do get it installed it is faster,more complatible, more relizble... like burning cd's and play action supercross @ the same time :) XP 0wnz 2k! |

"..The good: Secure, stable Windows 2000 code base; friendly home-user tools, such as multiuser logins and lots of streaming video, MP3 player, and digital camera options; folders and files integrate with the Web for publishing text and images or ordering goods; compatible with most software.." So everything we've seen before except for a f***ed up mp3 player. umm sure. PS: what the f*** is 'lots of streaming video'.. they don't even bother with appeal anymore |
