If you're familiar with 98, you really should have no trouble with XP, 
especially if you use the classic interface. Even the XP interface won't 
be especially difficult to learn. The fears people have about switching to 
XP are really unfounded, and most people find that the switch was worth it 
because of the stability benefits and other benefits of XP. Be sure, 
unless you have JFW Pro, to have XP Home on your machine, that's the only 
cautionary note I'd give.
