I haven't used XP, so I can't comment on it.  But I have used the
others, and... "Not the first two.  They're crap".  I have 2K at work and
on my laptop.  It runs well, and hasn't crashed in the 2.5 years I've
been using it.

I don't play games on it, of course (I just write them ;-)  But the gamers
are definitely second-class citizens.  Their needs don't count.

But then I'll never use the machine, so don't listen to me.
