XP Pro is my current operating system, by choice.

I have 95b, 98SE, ME and 2000 pro all on my ghost drive...every now and then I install one of them for fun...run it for a couple of days untill I am sick of it and back to XP pro. Takes a mere 7 minutes to install a new operating system under ghost.

XP pro is by far the most stable platform so far to date. It is also the slowest by a long shot...98SE boots in 21 seconds, XP pro boots in 47 seconds. I would rather stability over speed (I only have an old P4 1.3ghz, 384mb Rambus ram btw)
