However,,,
We all know you are "special". And you are apparently competent enough to set up a Window XP box in an expert manner too boot.

Are you denying the experiences of people who say that they have had nightmare experiences with Windows (XP) etc. Are you merely presuming that you are far more the expert than they could possibly be? Or do you think they are flat out lying? Perhaps you have heard that O'Reilly produces a 600+ page book on XP annoyances? I wonder why they published that?

From my own experience, XP is less prone to crash than 2k, but it does crash and sometimes for much the same reasons. And this with best efforts being made to avoid it. Go figure that you think all is sweetness and light in XP-land.
