I disagree.... but, since this is not GD I'll let you off easy.... but you might want to start thinking about your supporting arguments. :)

The more I look at Vagindows... I mean.. Windows XP... the more it starts to grow on me.
Doing my own benchmarks I've noticed a few significant performance increases... especially with the IE 6 browser.
I still don't like the way it looks...
AND I CAN'T CHANGE THE DAMN GREEN BUTTON! :p

Moderator's Notes: This looks more like a BBQ Pit topic to me. Or at least it will soon. Every MicroEvilSoft® thread I've ever seen here winds up that way. I'm mooooooving it.

Perhaps. But it's still no DOS 6.22.

I hate you. I've never met you, but I've read your message. Do you agree?

C'mon guys, her subject line was in all capital letters! That means a) it must be true and b) we should pay extra attention because it is obviously very important! Second, she is obviously so distraught about XP that she used a phonetic ur-spelling of "sucks," and she is too upset to even think about punctuation. Windows XP sucks so much that it is forcing her to lose her ability to communicate and revert her atavistic tiger nature! Is this not a compelling argument about the value of not only Windows XP, but any computer operating system? I shudder to think what a Mac OS would do to her fragile soul!

No, but if you hit start, run, and type command instead of cmd, it comes up with a window thats says windos dos. Thats gotta count for something.

ummm.... you've never used xp except for screenshots but you know that it sucks? how can you know anything except maybe that you don't like how it looks?
now, i'm not totally fond of xp, but that's mainly because it's a new os which is totally different from all of the previous microsoft os...es, and thus makes my job (walking people through troubleshooting their internet connections) a little more difficult.
from the class i took in xp and the limited experience i've had on it, it seems like an ok os.
want to explain what exactly you don't like about it?

It's by Microsoft -- of course it's going to suck.
Hey, it only took them fifteen years to get Windows to a point where it's almost as good as a Mac... ;)
