XP is not the best OS, user are better off with ME, 2k, linux etc. I used XP for 2 week and I can say that it make my computer very sluggish, rebooting god took 30 sec not 5 sec like on 9x or me or 2k. Sorry but the truth is, most people like XP because it look nicer not because its faster or more stable. With 128mb I cannot do anything, with 512mb its like winme with 128mb. Because it such a resouces hog, it will crash when it wants to due to running out of resources or freeze up. Well anyway I decide to downgrade back to ME and everything is so much easier to navigate and my game run faster too by 50 percent.
Can someone splain to me why the swap file size always has to be at least 1.5-3x larger then your maximum ram. So if I have 1GB of ram, it would need at least 1.5gb of swap file for it to function properly at all? This is where it doesn't make sense. The only good thing about XP is that its putting alot of $$$ into bill gate's pocket and most people say its good. sorry I just don't buy that as its just overhyped and you know the truth lies somewhere from experience user like me.
