A lot of people on my dorm has Win ME and I'm just like "oh god."
EVERYONE with Win ME has problems getting on the network, sooo funny.

All CDs have this feature. It's one of the keypoints of XP, to reduce piracy. (Unless your CD is an illegal copy with that feature taken out. I'm sure somebody has probably cracked it already!

I am running 2000 at home and my computer runs for months without a reboot and I gave heavily on it. If XP will run like Win2k then get it people, it's very stable. I am not exaggerating, MONTHS.

I'm shopping a notebook now and it sounds like 2000 might be the way to go. Don't think I want to experiment with a new format.
