For people who are waiting for the final version of Windows XP SP2, it will propably be delayed till September 2004. You can however download it at microsoft.com but this is still in beta phase and not recommended.

I use Win XP Home Edition because I've never tried anything else and this does the job.

Ever tried Mac OS X?  It'll "do the job" much better.  Besides that, it works much better!  And, get this:  It will run most Linux and Unix software!

while i have no problem with Mac OSX, (and kinda love it from afar), theres no ppoint trying to convince everyone to try it. most ppl can't afford to buy the new hardware, nor do they want to make the "Switch"
