I love windows 2K, it is an excellent and stable platform.

Gaming, excellent, office stuff, excellent, other software, excellent.

Have not had it crash on me yet, and that's a long time, almost 6 months.

Win98SE crashed at least every other day if left on.

New Windows, Bah, I'll wait until windows 2010 thank you very much.

I used WInXP at home for a while but had trouble with my DSL line one day. The tech had me remove the NIC and let WinXP reinstall it. After it did it promptly told me that I had made too many hardware changes and I had to reactivate it. After attempting to do so, I gave up and put Win2K on it and I love it.

I use WinXP at work but I hate the start menu thing. I don;t like all the things it does on it own asking me if I want to do something I didn't ask it to do. I have had to reinstall it once for a client and had to call M$ to talk to a person to reactivate it after upgrading the motherboard.

I am learning Linux now. It's definately not Windows!
In short order Linux will be visable everywhere.
(It's already everywhere)
I have to feed my family so I'll have to work with whatever my job calls for but if they ask me I'd say Linux.
