It depends what you want to do with your OS. As far as I know XP asks for too much.

This is my all time favorite question.  What is the best operating system?  Lets see what runs the worlds most powerful computers?  O...AIX!!!!  IBM rules for AIX and their current Linux development.  but in all honesty there is not best.  Ask people what there favorite color is and youll get all sorts of fucked up replies with people talking shit on each other and what not.  It always comes down to personal preference.  refraise the question so we know what you are looking for like pretty buttons or command line stuff or easy install and configure scripts or whatever and someone can definetely give you an answer.  But if you want to be fucking tough install slackware.

MS's minimum sys reqs for XP are total BS. There is no way in hell you can run winXP on they 64megs of RAM they say in the minimum. 128 is pushing it. 256 is the sweet spot, IMO. Also, MS says you only need a P1, also BS. I'd say a P2 of at least 300Mhz. I ran XP on a 433 Celeron with 128megs of RAM and it dogged tho.

Overall, prolly the best all around best windows OS is win2k. Its more stable than Win9x, decent gaming support, and does not by 51% of your soul. Unless you have some older DOS apps you want to run, use win2k. WinXP handles DOS apps better than win2k. Also, you could dual boot win98 and win2k, if you wanted to run those DOS apps.
