Ok i am about to buy an MDG pentium 4 and they are offering windows XP or Windows ME as an operating system for free with the software bundle that we get..

i want to know which is better and less of a pain in the A$$ (meaning crashes and all the annoying things in windows) so i can make a decision about the OS that is gonna be put on the computer..

the computer is primarely going to be used for typing out projects, icq, playing some internet games, downloading music, editing music, videos and surfing the internet.. common household use..

which is a better choice for me? XP or ME???


please help me out with my dilema
