i have xp pro since the first day it came out and it is flawless.
the only problem i had at the beginning was the modem driver wern't compatible but i found drivers 2 weeks later and running it with no more problems.
security wise if you get all updates it will fix most of the problems with security.
xp pro has an excellent firewall built in and works to my favor.
the best antivirus is fix it utilities.
mcafee and norton will lock you out from the internet.
xp won't give you blue screen of death.
win 98 is verry buggy and blue screen of death happens even if you get all the updates!!!!!
I\'LL TRY ANYTHING ONCE IF I LIKE IT I\'LL DO IT AGAIN!?!i!:-)

Do you want to play games? Then I'd have to say 98SE, it's the only M$ OS I run at home. XP is crap and so is 2000.
If you want it for other stuff (obviously not Internet) then use whatever floats your boat cause it doesn't matter. Attacks, vulnerabilities, etc. etc.
Mankind have a great aversion to intellectual labor; but even supposing knowledge to be easily attainable, more people would be content to be ignorant than would take even a little trouble to acquire it.

Hi Kapper,
I know what you mean. Linux isn't probably for the average, "get on the Internet every couple of days to check e-mail and movie listings" user, but I figured RaDIaToR52 is one of us die hard computer nuts who would take the time to learn it.
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
