 XP for Me is Solid and Good, 2008-03-21
I have XP running on a bootcamp partition on my MacBook and it is doing just fine. I spend most of my working time in Word, hardly ever using any of the other programs in the Office suite. However, I use the Adobe products PhotoShop, InDesign and Illustrator a whole bunch. Other than that I play solitaire, watch videos and, of course, use both Explorer and Firefox when I go online. That's about it for me, software wise, and XP handles it all without fail, without crashing and without giving me any headaches.
And I will miss it when I upgrade to Vista, however my machine can handle the upgrade. If yours can't, then I'd recommend you stay with XP. It's solid and good. Vista may be better, but it's not worth buying a new computer over.

Good Software, 2008-03-03
This is great for Mac users who want to add Windows to their computers. Please note that you will also need to either download Apple's "Bootcamp" software, or purchase Parallel software (which Amazon also sells) and install it before installing the Windows XP software. It's worth the money.

Purchasing an OS, 2008-02-13
If you are going to purchase an Operating System, you have to ask yourself what are you doing to be doing with your computer.
Go ahead, take a second and ask yourself.
I am an Extreme Gamer. As far as I am concern, Windows XP is one of the most stable and reliable OS's for the most every day uses, like gaming. Windows is extremely user friendly and most of the popular applications used is for windows.
Do not believe rumors about Mac's being un-hackable. It's just that the user base value of macs are so low that the shock value will be as low so nobody wastes their time writing viruses for mac's only. But Mac's are very good for productivity like film/audio editing. I use my mac for when I am just editing films with my gf. But the Mac OS are only good on macs seeing how they are built to use that OS. And no right click? lol. Still, Mac OS is a good productive OS.
Linux is for Computer Guru's who know what they are doing and know what they want in an Operating System. This is also a Productive OS but for the most knowledgeable in computing. FREE*
So again, what are you doing with your computer?
Everyday use, simple, easy, friendly, gaming, secure - Windows
Productivity - Mac
*NOTE* Do not consider Linux if you have no idea what you are doing. Linux is for the most extreme.

 National Disgrace, 2008-01-11
It is a national disgrace that Microsoft keeps ripping off the public by selling this garbage software.
Get a Mac.
