If You Must Run Windows, This May Be The Best of Bad Choices

Date of Review:  Aug 21, 2008
The Bottom Line: I can't recommend any version of Microsoft Windows. But if one needs it, this is probably the best choice.
Review: Overall, I have mixed feelings about Windows XP. I can't recommend Windows. But if one does need Windows, this is probably the best version.

First, what's wrong with Microsoft Windows? Just a few things I don't like:

Better than Vista

Date of Review:  Jan 29, 2008
The Bottom Line: Replace Windows ME or Vista
Review: This operating system is a fancy upgrade from windows 2000, except Windows xp can run 16 bit applications, unlike 2000. This is a great operating system if you want to game, word process, or just plain use the internet. It is far more reliable than...

Windows XP SP2 Security & Stability

Date of Review:  May 27, 2009
The Bottom Line: I would reccomend this to any one wishing to use A Microsoft Windows OS for a new PC or to upgrade form a previous version. Or getting SP3 Upgrade disc.
Review: Microsoft Windows XP is a very good OS and far better than many of Microsoft's previous Operating Systems. It is based on both Windows NT and Windows 2000. It is much more stable than Windows 95 or Win 98 or even Windows Millennium Edition. More...

GREAT OS,

Date of Review:  Feb 16, 2008
Review: This OS is great for the average user, with the new SP3 coming out it will get rid of more kinks and allow it to have much greater performance, all in all this is an all around good OS I would recomend it to the average home user or gamer.

Not the greatest but very Good

Date of Review:  Aug 6, 2008
The Bottom Line: I have been using Windows since Windows 95 and seen how Microsoft has become better. Windows XP, to me, is the most stable and most supported OS out there today.
Review: Windows XP Home is a great leap for Microsoft from Windows 95 and 98. Windows XP is more stable; you don't get as many Blue Screens of Death. Win XP is great for small home networks, basic tasks such as Word processing, and listening to music...
