XP operating system

as with any new program, good idea to see it "work" in the public domain for a little while first. software is always buggy especially with the first release. example? IE6

upgraded last week. everytime i start puter and open browser first time get the illegal operation error. on 2nd attempt its fine. plus some online banking sites don't work. banks says its a glitch in the new version and go back to IE 5.5.
sure MSFT will provide a patch or two for this or maybe have to get 6.1 to fix it.

make sure you got more that the min memory requirement. if OS says 128, double it.

Been using XP Pro for the past month. Build my own systems. Before any of you spend $1k on a new computer, think twice.
XP can be run just fine on a PII or PIII 600 Celeron 600+ or AMD K3-400, Athalon 800+, as long as you have 256MB memory(thats the important part). Can probably upgrade cheaply.
