I don't know what it is about XP

[docwebster]

But I loathe that OS. Instinctively. There's just something about that offends me on a gut level. I *like* 98SE, dammit. I know what to expect, I know How Things Work (to an admittedly minor degree), and I run a great many programs that I depend on and XP just does not play nice with.

Before anybody mentions the L word OS, don't bother. One of the programs I absolutely rely on to be able to take requests and maintain logs thereof simply does not exist on the L word OS.

Feh.

Anyway, I'm going to have a rather tasty show Saturday night featuring a show from The Grateful Dead circa 1987. See you then, folken.

Indeed. But the default style of XP reminds us a great deal of the Tellytubbies. All rounded and muted primary colors.

If XP has a Tellytubby interface...

...what about the even more stripped down (gag) WindowsME???? Feh. To me *that* is Fisher Price.

I've with doc on the 98SE, even though 4 out of the 5 machine in that house
are macs running OSX.

XP makes ME look not stripped down
