Thats why I'm moving to linux! I build my own systems and i've chosen to
keep Win98SE on my stuff until the transistion to all linux is complete.
There's waay too many bugs in XP and the crashes are often unrecoverable.
Who needs that?
There are rumors that MS got hacked and someone messed with the XP sp2
code...who knows...
