Windows XP with Service Pack 2 installed is the best operating system for computer clubs, BUT! If you can spend some time and money for buying and licensing Windows CE especially for your club/office or business it'll give you more points than standard Microsoft Windows XP

Well, although WinXP looks better, has more abilities than any other Windows OS, and so on, I really prefer Win2000 above XP. Mainly because of its stability, and compatibility.

Over here I can choose on of the three OS { 98, XP HOME SP2, XP PRO } and because I've never really used 98 or XP PRO as in done much with it, I'd have to choose XP HOME for how comfortable and easy-to-use it is but I'm sure if I were to use XP PRO I'd prefer that

I am using windows Xp for 2 years now, I haven't had any problems with them, viruses, security exploits really doesn't bother me, since I use it wiht Kaspersky antivirus and Sygate firewall and really no problems what so ever since beggining. Actually you can get viruses on any system if it isn't secured enough, all in one XP is good piece of software.

I've been using XP at home and Windows 2000 at my school and I haven't had any mojor problems yet. Both are quite good on theier own merits and much better than ME (on my old laptop). Windows 2000 is stable since it is based on Windows NT, but Windows XP is also solid and great for networking.

Although I´m a great detractor of Microsoft itself, I must admit that they have (finally) released a good OS, stable and user-friendly at the same time. But I´m not very sure if it´s a safe system... you know there are constantly patches for detected security issues.
