| 625307 | 2007-12-28 07:57:00 | What are the specifications of the computer that you wish to upgrade, or is it to be a brand new computer? | Jen (38) | ||
| 625308 | 2007-12-28 07:57:00 | well depending on the specs of the pc or weather you are getting a new one.. i would get XP my self, 2000 is crap and so is Vista i hear..... | password (5384) | ||
| 625309 | 2007-12-28 07:59:00 | Do you game much? What does your everyday uses of the PC constitute of? I wouldn't go to Win2000. If you don't need DX10, then go for XP instead of Vista. | qazwsxokmijn (102) | ||
| 625310 | 2007-12-28 08:00:00 | Nothing wrong with 2000. Its as stable as XP. But, its time is nearly over (even tho there are still some updates, coming out for it). Altho some things that work in XP wont work in 2000. |

| 625312 | 2007-12-28 08:05:00 | ie: IE 7, and my DV cam for instance. There's no driver for it for Windows 2000. I havent come across anythng else yet, that isnt compatible with 2000 tho. lol when I make a PC, just as long as it works after I put it together, I'll chuck anything on it. |

| 625313 | 2007-12-28 08:13:00 | A new computer I think.... I need a new monitor etc. XP is easy to use and I guess it will be around for a while? |

| 625314 | 2007-12-28 08:19:00 | XP will still be around. The updates wont be around forever tho, I think they go till 2011, or 2014. |
