Ohh well maybe ill go and get XP now.. Is it waay better than 2000 or jus little differences besides the look?

If you get XP Pro it's alot more secure and has alot less flaws. just make sure as soon as you upgrade get the updates off of Microsoft's website.

XP pro at the mo
win98 was faster but toooo unstable

This is a bogus misconception...

When I received my computer, it originally had the ME OS in it because there was a slight delay in getting it out. Oh my god, what a mess that ME was! It worked fine when nothing was wrong, but when it crashed; look out! I was quite familiar with the blue screen of death and with tech support at Microsoft. One time, I had a problem with the software even Microsoft and Compaq could not figure out, and Compaq said that I had a bad hard drive and gave me a warranty number to get it fixed. Well, I figured out it was ME causing it and fixed it myself. Still have the original hard drive humming away as I type this.
Oh, almost forgot. I have XP Home and lovin' it!

Actually that is what most companies and just about every school that I've looked at use unless you use propritary software like ILM

I'm using win xp pro and it didn't experience any catastrophic failure yet (touch wood) 8)
so i would say win xp pro is the best
(win 2000 pro is also very good, and it uses less system resource)

And that is because Apple has always thrown their hardware at the educationals and creative companies in an attempt to promote their solution.

This fact was true up until about 1998 - since then ALL the graphics folks have had Windows 2000, and now XP Pro versions of their heavy weight design products.

Apple is from now on compatible with windows

I thought apple computers don't run as well if they're using Windows programs.

when your running an emulator they can slow down quite a bit but Mac's don't run Windows software directly, you need an emulator or Mac compatible software.

And microsoft products or any other product for windows are compatible either?

Microsoft makes an Office program for Macs but you can't just go buy any program for windows and plug it inot a Mac it must have the Mac symbol on the box. I think he ment it was equal in performance.

Why run windows in a Mac when you have the Mac OS X (i think that is the name) that is far better?

Apple are very stable and the performances can be higher than in Windows.

Power Mac G5 rules.

you don't actually run Windows on it, the idea is to use programs only available on Windows it's not actually Windows on your Mac, it's usually for people who want to play games not available on the Mac. That's really the only kind of program not hugely available for the Mac.
