Windows XP Home--Can't live without it

Windows XP is by far the best OS on the market. With its sleak looks and top notch security, not to mention it's user friendly ...it beats other OS's hands down.

However, there are some aspects to the OS that I think are just pointless. Upon startup, Windows XP runs several programs in the background, some of which I'm not sure is really needed. All those programs sometimes tend to slow things down a bit. But if you have enough RAM to run all those programs, you should be OK, despite all those other background programs.

Windows XP is THE OS to own. Any older version just doesn't cut it these days.
