Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (N09-00048) For PC: Hell freezes over

Sun, 30 Jan 2005 05:30:48 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author HawgWyld - I can't believe it. This operating system actually works as advertised. Microsoft has been putting out one crummy product after another since about the time of MS-DOS 4.0. I can still remember booting up my old 286-based PC clone with a copy of...

Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (N09-00048) For PC: Maybe Apple next time?

rating: 1/5 by: Epinions Author qzock - Cannot remove IE Explorer from the OS. Virus prone. Had to reinstall several times in the last year. Told by CS that it is my fault for not using firewall, virus protection, etc... BUT I DO. Explorer hijacked by some bums that I could not rid of...

Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (N09-00048) For PC: Pretty, but can get slow

Tue, 22 Jun 2004 18:25:53 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author spencer195 - Windows XP has a pretty interface. It is also the most stable version of Windows. The first thing you will notice with Windows XP is the interface overhaul - all the menus were skinned in blue and green instead of the conventional grey, white, and...

Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (N09-00048) For PC: The best OS out there now for the average home user

Sun, 30 May 2004 01:47:37 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author smoke286 - This Operating System is relatively trouble free compared to previous Windows Versions. Unless you have need of some of the advanced features in Pro, its not worth the extra bucks. I love the eye candy, but thats a personal preference. If you keep your...

Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (N09-00048) For PC: Great OS, but damn near 300 bucks!

Mon, 26 Jan 2004 13:33:14 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author roblinb - I can't really find much fault with Windows XP. It really takes care of your system, is easy to use, and doesn't have the stability problems that were a minor problem with the 9X versions of windows. Still it costs a lot. If you got the entire MS...

Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (N09-00048) For PC: It opened the gateway to hell.

Tue, 6 Jan 2004 20:10:59 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author nnyspork - Windows XP Home Edition is about the crappiest thing since Windows ME. I have never seen an OS give me a blue screen just because of a power outage and then force me to format. About the only good thing about it is DirectX 9. This system has so many...

Tue, 30 Dec 2003 04:09:26 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author marcus1060 - Windows XP is the easiest Windows yet for a basic user. But lacks in some advanced areas. The new design can be a nice break from the old style. Windows XP has more features, but also take up more Harddrive space, needs more ram, and more cpu...

Mon, 22 Dec 2003 04:27:16 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author rakxz - By far, this is the worst OS I have ever come across. I use a lot of programs and my ram gets used quite a bit. I don't know why Microsoft never fixes this problem: Progs that don't clear the ram! It's really bad in 2000, I have to reboot every fifteen...

Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition (N09-00048) For PC: Very Good , but not very user friendly

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author andrewself - I've had Windows XP Home Edition for a little over 2 months now and I absolutely love it. I use Windows Classic themes due to the fact that the new Windows XP look can use up memory. It's a fairly fast OS , much better then 98 I had :). I can run my co...

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author express15_99 - First we had Windows 95, an OS that revolutionized desktop computing. It's successor, Windows 98, only made life easier and using a computer so much easier. Then came Windows ME, a subpar OS that was one of Microsoft's most shameful operating system relea...

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author auscfan - I had some operating system problems on my 1998 vintage PC, but while the hardware has been kept up to date, I let WIN 98 stay there because I didn't think OS upgrade was that important. Now that family gremlins have installed so many games and...

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author ghicker - Why should I move to Windows XP?

First, let me say that I was a big fan of Windows 98 SE. It was relatively stable and popular. So, when I rebuilt my computer in November 2002, I was a little reluctant to move to another version of Windows...

Sun, 22 Dec 2002 13:44:58 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author dareynolds - Win XP came bundled on my IBM Netvista PC. The single best improvment in XP is that it powers up/down in no time flat. I had Win 2K on my previous machine and it would take forever to shut down and restart. XP boots up even in seonds, reboots are just...
