xp for 14 days

[baffled]

Then I have to activate it.It is very almost child like in appearance,like someone went at it with some markers (florescent at that).I don't have a large enough cpu or enough ram to run it well.Anyone else trying it.The scrolling is jumpy.I am going to try another browser to see if that will help.Let me know of anything I can do or try with it please.

I have XP running on a Duron 700 with 384 megs of Ram and it is running Fine for me. I actually like the new interface. The new interface is actually pleasing to the eyes. If you don't like the Default Blue color of XP you can change it to silver or olive green. XP comes with a lot of applications that have to be downloaded seperately with other OS's like a firewall(it may not be as good as Zonealarm) a rollback utility, PPPoE client that people with dynamicly assigned IP addresses will find very useful. It's extremely stable due to the fact that it's built on the NT kernal. I am not the biggest Microsoft fan but this operating system is about as close to perfect as Microsoft has come since it's inception.
Your machine will definitely need balls to run XP, so you may need to upgrade. What are the specs on the machine you run now?

Running pro at the moment,stable,the color grows on you,the video card won't load properly,scrolling is jumpy on web pages,but all things considered it is alright.
