I've thought about going back

because I have programs i want to run that don't work with xp. It would also run a lot faster without xps footprint. I just can't be bothered and I'm afraid other stuff would stop working.

if anything, it might be better to go to win2k, or *nix

2k is nice

but patching it is an arse and it boots slowely

God I hated 2000

and xp for that matter.

I'll stick with this
It's all personal preference you know. There's no "right and wrong" oppo system.

Security? SECURITY?

I had 2000 installed for a very short time, and I got those damn messenger service boxes (Turned them off of course) and Trojans galore in through the back door.

what's more, Win98 is not effected by MsBlast. Heh!

messenger things are a stupid service left on my m$ but a piece of piss to turn off really.

for security I'd go for 2k or XP (me at a stretch) as they are still being maintained by M$
