built-in wireless client manager is a definite plus.. great for laptops. it can be user-friendly, but can be switched over to advanced user-mode too for most functions.
it's pretty well supported now. i dont see a problem with upgrading.

I'm using Windows XP Pro with Office 2000. No problems there. I really like XP even more than I liked Windows 2000 (which I had been using at home since it first came out). If you don't like the cutesy interface of XP, no big deal. Just switch your start menu back to classic mode, switch your theme to classic mode and put your icons back on the desktop. Problem solved.
Now, I don't have a feel for the speed of XP versus Win2k, especially in a limited resource environment (like 128 MB of RAM). My home machine has 1 GB of RAM. That's more than a few of my NT servers at work.

We're using XP pro here @ work as well. I have one machine running XP pro @ home but I'm changing the two PC's at home out for iMAC's with the 17" Monitors when they become available. OS X rocks..
I'll probably have to run Virtual PC (XP) on one of them so I can still use MS Money 2002, I really like it and it's far superior to Quicken 2002.
