Hmm....best windows story....well, one time I loaded a program for my digital camera and then when I restarted it (Windows 98 *i thought it was the best version...i guess not*) and it would not load. Just stayed at the cloud screen and kept scrollling forever. Left it for 4 days, still did the same thing. Ended up having to format my hard drive and rebuild my whole computer without any of my mp3's backed up.
Then there was the time where I would leave my computer on overnight and it would automatically run out of virtual memory. O great times with windows.
....and then...I switched to Mac. O the joy! :D |

Here's a story:
Win98 days... PC crashed at least once per 2 hours.
Then I switched to XP Pro. Not a single crash since.
Well, except one but that was only because my HD died. |

| I have XP since the day it came out. Not one single crash, not one single software/hardware error, no problems at all. (didn't have any with 98 either) :D |

| Windows 98 , lol, i use to do lots of pc repairs for a few ppl so i had to encounter with 98, the system is so unstable, i remember when you had to put a driver disk in and the OS could not locate the files and you had to manually search through lots of directories, also it always ask for the .cab files when updating hardware, which did not recognise from the cdrom. o yeah that active desktop is a real slut too. thank god for Win XP PRO (64bit ) & UNIX |

I can't wait until I make the transition to an APPLE set up...just waiting for school to end and get some cash flow.
Although I can honestly say that since I got my own PC and disallowed my ANNOYING SIBLINGS AND PARENTS to touch it....things have been great. Maybe 2 or 3 lock-ups or crashes.....
.....and I'm pretty sure its because I havent let them install any crap or click yes to any pop-ups.
WOULD YOU LIKE GATOR??? NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO |
