    Angry WINDOWS XP pro corp..............

    Well, I finally decided to get myself Windows XP Pro and replace my Win98SE and W2K dual boot based System. Now I am kicking myself very hard Why didn't I do it earlier??? To sum it up, Windows XP is brilliant!!! . No, I do not work for Microsoft, just thought this post might help anyone thinking about moving up from their older OS.

    I am a very happy man!!! Well done MS!!!

    Yes thx, I have taken care of the U PnP security hole. I had that particular patch already prepared due to how serious an issue it is. However for anyone who did not apply the patch manually they will find it included in the critical updates at Windows updates. I appriciate you mentioning it anyway

    PS: Did I mention what a fantastic OS Windows XP is???
