I'm still running 2000 SP4 so I know what you mean. It seems like support for 2000 is starting to end, although I don't want to waste my money on XP when Vista is so close...

but considering the cost of adobe premiere and FSX, adding the cost of XP home doesnt add up to that much more overall

and arent you still a student GT? isnt there a discount?

why would you want to buy XP? Why would you want to buy Premiere?

The fact is i have seen dodgy results from pirated XP's. Im happy with 2000 as it is stable, fast and i own a legal copy of it.

In Japan a brand new copy of XP costs like 380 bucks!!

I was sh*tting myself when my harddrive failed and I left my XP setup disc back in Australia...

Is that XP SP2 or 1?
I've heard SP2 plays up with pirated copys.

which is why I still only have sp1

I use my computer for some work so any software I use for making money (which has to include the operating system) I most certainly pay for.

Same here mate, not that i make much money off my com but its a bit...

And I saw Sp1 screwing up, as well as hearing many probs with Sp2. And i would guess that there are a fre progs for XP that need sp2 neway

just switch to Linux. It's free, just ignore the fact that nothing you have now will work.
