Guest Tie Guy Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 Well, i won't upgrade to it, but if i get a new comp it will most likely come with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boba Rhett Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 Well aren't you going to explain why your not going to? I might "upgrade" to it in a few months after they've caught the major bugs and fixed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 When buying a Micro$oft Product you must follow two simple rules; Rule number 1)Never pre-order because there are always bugs, buy it 2 to 3 months after. Rule number 2)Never get you hopes too high on a Micro$oft product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 25, 2001 Share Posted October 25, 2001 Go to Microsoft.com or Cnet.com They both have lots of screens and information. Im not buying XP till Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheJackal_jk2 Posted October 26, 2001 Share Posted October 26, 2001 ... I got XP. I like it Nothing wrong with it yet. It's very stable. And if you have a certain program that was made to run on windows95 or WindowsNT or WindowsME its no problem. WIndowsXP is compatible with all of the above (all versions of Windows). You simple left click the link/program and select which operating system that the program is more compatible too. You can also have the new interface which is featured with XP or the classical one. Up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EndSub Posted October 26, 2001 Share Posted October 26, 2001 I'm using it right now "The Windows That Was Actully Good" Great UI, and alot of things I would normally use 3rd party are built in e.g. A Simple Data Cd Burner......stable as hell (Only crash I have had is when I installed some bad Detonator Drivers...) .....I don't know if it is worth the $400 price tag (I got the Prof. edition ) but it is defianlty the best Windows so far.....

Guest roach Posted October 27, 2001 Share Posted October 27, 2001 I installed a mates copy of XP for a day (shhhh, dont tell anybody ) and I didn't particularly like it. It was obviously designed to be more accesible to the computer illiterate person, and I just didn't feel comfortable with it. It kindly offered to set up my network automatically, and stuffed it up. I couldn't get my network up again, and the internet didnt work either. I am proud to say that I am now back on good ol' Windows 98. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very editable and you can even set it up to have the classical Win98 look if you dont like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Luke Skywalker Posted October 28, 2001 Share Posted October 28, 2001 YES! I have done it! I have crashed XP! It was hard and long but I did it. I had 52 programs running....OMG that means *gasp* its stable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest roach Posted October 29, 2001 Share Posted October 29, 2001 LOL luke I guess I should probably explain that my computer isnt exactly the best. I am using an old brick of a laptop with 233hz, and the XP minimum specs are 300hz or something like that . I have just had some good fun with 98 over the years (except for the stupid crashing I must admit, damn you to hell Bill Gates ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen it in action for a couple of months now (friend has that Microsoft Developer thing), but wasn't really impressed. And i never fool around enough to let Windows crash.
