1) Windows 2000.
2) Stable, does what I need for graphics editing, and lets me use Linux software (like Perl, PHP, Apache, Firefox) without all the command prompt and scattered filesystem nonsense. User interface is less configurable but easier to navigate than KDE. It allows me to upgrade whenever I want, since I'm not locked down with proprietary hardware, like the Mac. I do have a Linux box that I keep up to date, just in case those Linux guys stop sucking at writing interfaces, but so far I have found no use for Linux.
3) No. I'd rather die than get XP. Then again, I'll be working on getting my MCSE soon, so I'll have to upgrade sooner or later.
