ok, yeah yeah, it's a good idea though. I prefer XP for lappies ;) , BUT, I like 2000 more.
apparently XP with its inbuilt speedstep technology for P-4M, is buggy on p4m >= 2.0 ghz.
lot of laptop makers are having probs on lappies running XP with p4m >=2ghz, they step down to 1.2 and will often not stay a t full speed.
dell + toshiba forums are littered with posts about this.
win2k + intel speedstep app works fine tho! so its obviously an XP bug...
I think that XP is the best program, actually ever made! It has everything I need, and it has all those new things! Hehe, I love it:D
WinXP IF tweaked for maximal battery longitivity.
If not tweaked, then Win2k.
Win9x family does eats the battery a lot quicker...
well, i haven't had to run scandisk once since converting to NTFS (well, let me restate that - i've run it a few times but it's never found any disk errors), that's the biggest plus for me.Quote:

plus, unless you're running in disaster-recovery-oh-my-god-the-OS-has-screwed-the-pooch mode, NTFS is more or less transparent to the enduser.
MAC OS X owns u all
