> what would tempt me to move to XP from

The exact same things that would motivate you to move to 2k, which is NT
5.0, and XP is 5.1. All you _really_ get in XP are several GUI tweaks, and a
TON of integrated "features" that any sensible user has to spend time
removing. Oh, and you get DOS. But for nearly all desktop purposes, DOS has
been phased out. I would strongly reccomend upgrading to 2k Pro, but NOT XP.
The security and integration issues are just too great, and there are no
killer features that 2k lacks.
