View Full Version : Windows Xp Or Windows 2000
I think I want to put windows 2000 pro on my windows box instead of xp.
Is windows 2000 pro any different or is xp better. I like xp but it gets on my nerves sometimes. :huh:

xp is built upon windows 2000 (nt) so they are very similar in what they do windows 2000 has a win98 look where as IMO xp looks alot better xp has a few more features but because of the eye candy in xp you need alot more resourses to run it

For those of us who have the software knowledge equivalent of a turnip (and not afraid to admit it), I would definitely recommend staying with XP just for the sheer stretch of it's "user friendliness". But in your case, I do not think that would amount to making much of a difference.
I suppose that I would just use what I call the "power play" test. Unplug your system from the socket. Everything- all at once. Leave it off for a minute then plug it back it. Can 2000 handle it?
Besides- XP may suck monkey balls when it comes to resource management, but I just like all the pretty pictures well enough not to ever downgrade to anything less. :P

I beg to differ, I loathe XP :P
The good-damned "this driver hasn't been licensed by microsoft" all the fuggin' time and the registration bit and all that.
Win2k has never let me down, XP annoys the heave-ho out of me, my comp. works swell with win2k and I hardly ever have any trouble, but every time a neighbors pc or one that belongs to my parents or my brothers needs something installed or starts acting funny, guess who has to fix it... :angry: ...and it's always XP, it is a blight on this earth I tell thee.
