I do hear that longhorn will be better as should technically windows 2004 which I heard might actually be something coming out even though 2004 is virtually over.

it will be real kool if MicroSoft will release the Windows Server 2004. I believe that it will have more features compared to the 2003 counterpart. And will be more user friendly too.

I hate it. I have no choice but to use it as all the programs I use on a regular basis are tailored for it. I wish Windows 98 was still popular. Since its what is "the norm" right now I will continue to use it. I highly recommend PRO over HOME. It is definitely the better of two evils.

Windows XP is great: except for the activation bs. But if you have the corporate version, there is no activation.
Longhorn looks promising, but I hear that microsoft may be in bed with the MPAA & RIAA (2 evil monopolies) to make DRM (Digital Rights Management) integrated into Longhorn. DRM is horrible, because it takes the control away from the user and gives it to the big evil record and film companies.
Boycott the RIAA and MPAA!

Well windows xp is pretty user friendly but
it is a too user friendly because it
is a little too easy to get past the passwords even for someone
with only a fairly good knowledge of computers.

:) What do you mean rusty? Windows xp is supposed to be safe with the passwords. I mean if you lose your windows password (in case you lock your windows) nobody can break it :) (only by mistake maybe) :D
