ME or XP??

[TheMan]

Hello,
I am currently running ME and was woundering if people thought i should upgrade to XP ??
I have been told by some people I should do it. Can anyone who knows about this stuff give me any comments? Maybe a reason to stay with ME or a reason to move on??
Please help me make a decisions guys...
Heck if you don't have any comments or reasons.. Please just type ME or XP and lets see what gets more votes.

Thanks

[Amputate Your Head]

they both suck...

Win2K Pro

[Lexxx]

XP is MUCH better...

[Dildozer]

ME is the devil
XP or 2000
but dear god, not ME

[vik]

W2K Pro - no contest.

Fo Sho Motha Fucka! Fo Sho! What the hell are you doing using ME still? It crashes like a bitch. Move to XP Pro

[E-Randy]

Can I change my fucking vote? I didn't know Win 2k pro was in the running! That's my choice biaatch!

[Libertine]

win 2k pro indeed

[Tex Willer]

depends on the hardware

if p3 or faster and 256MB+ than XP, otherwise Win98/ME

[TheMan]

Yes my ME crashes alot... So far it looks like XP is a go...
Any more votes???

[xanx]

You will like XP better..

Not a real techi but in my experience I have noticed that when some program locks up or whatever XP can close it without a reboot. To me that was worth the upgrade..

[Braincash Fred]

Depend on what is your computer and what you are running but I never had a single problem with XP.

On the other side, ME is the worst operating system ever done ;)

[TaDoW]

XP all the way :-)

XP

I would say XP. Everytime you think it's going to crash and lose all your work, all you have to do is wait it out and it will fix itself.
Never ever had a problem with it yet.

Im on the Man's icq ignore list, but ill still help out and say Win2kPro

I have no problems with ME. I usually have half a dozen browsers open, Outlook Express, 3 or 4 MSN Messengers going and open and close PaintShop Pro a few times a day plus I have to open MS Access a couple times a day. This all runs on a Pentium III 500 with 256MB of Ram.

I haven't had a Blue Screen of Death in Donkeys Years (that's a long time).

All our PC's run ME and I've stayed away from XP because of the security problems and the fact that Micro$quash has SP1 reporting your encryption key back to some database in Redmond, WA. If they can send that back what will they do next?

i use xp
but i have had troubles with my old programs like
thumbmakers and some movie editors and games with it

[BrettJ]

I have to use xp - for video editing - win2k has a conflict with studio dv.

but I still got 2000 professional on the laptop - they are both good. used to have ME on the laptop - i had some funkyness - but it served it's purpose too. I expect to have to reboot - it's windows - but so what?

[jimmyf]

Win 3.3 and Nutscape 2.4 is all you need..

[Mr.Fiction]

XP is way more stable.

Have done the ME > XP upgrade on a machine without any problems.

[TheMan]

Ok upgrading to xp now. Be back in 45 minuites
thanks everyone!

Still would like to see comments and votes if anyone wfeels like adding them.

[.:Frog:.]

I have ME and don't understand why everyone hates it. My computer rarely ever hangs, there are no problems at all.

I bought a computer for my girlfriend and XP is installed. XP works fine.

Both work fine, I like them equal.

My XP had never crashed, and ME crashed occasionally. You'll want 512MB RAM for XP though. Upgrade, you'll love it. And you can turn all the graphic features off so it looks like ME. (How foolish it is for those who do not like it because of the graphic effects.)

Oh yeah, and that too. ME is based on old 3.1/95 code, and XP is based on stable Windows NT code.

[machineg]

Xp pro
totally stable, fast as hell
but if you got old hardware forget it
