Re: Upgrade operating system question.

[Tom van Gemert]

Thanks everybody for sharing thoughts, I've used Win98 (second edition 
of course) to develop (mostly director projects, but also some 
webdevelopment) for two years now, in this company I work for. And 
almost every day I have to restart my computer (several times) due to 
freezes or explorer.exe crashing (or sortlike), also my computer 
sometimes gets very slow when intensively working on Director projects 
(opening lots of movies, doing lots of I/O, working with V12 DB, 
creating large installer files with NSIS). This is the reason why I 
really want to upgrade to 2000, or XP, I hope and expect it to be more 
stable (!!!???).
At home I have Win 2000 installed, so I was tended to run that, but the 
point most of my clients will use XP (and they do! at least more and 
more will be), makes me turn to XP pro more. Sadly OSX isn't an option, 
someday my next home computer will be some new PowerMac, but until then 
I will have to work with my PC. Also at work I develop for windows systems.

thanks,
