Macs and I do not mix either.
Under normal usage, I can crash almost anything in record time.
(The exception being the Nintendo Gameboy.)
Currently using my machine, as it is now 'partially complete' with the switching of the OS.
Will have to beat XP's arrogance out of it sooner or later.
(All operating systems assume that you do not know where you want things put and will strive to install things where you don't want it regardless of user input.)
But, I now have my machine back up.
Even if it is like taking a ship to sea with it half completed.
Win98 had a few 'issues' with fast systems.
Win2000 had less issues with fast systems, but usually drivers were minimal in population.
Thankfully, XP has more drivers available and is supposed to have the stability that Win2000 had.
(Unfortunately, I have no experience with Win2000, so this will be a learning experience. I will keep you informed of my discoveries.)
I'm through with most of the trouble, but now have to complete setting it up, wiping the old drive and working the 'teething' problems of a new install out.
*phew*

Never even considered a Mac, I got into computers for the games and Macs just didin't support the ones I liked.
