You want transparency and 32 bit icons? get Windows XP
You want memory protection? get Windows XP
You want integrated debugging built into the OS? get Windows XP
You want a fast TCP/IP stack? get Windows XP
You want built-in CD burning? get Windows XP
You want backwards compat all the way back to the 1980s? get Windows XP
You want driver support? get Windows XP
You want a choice of great web browsers and office apps? get Windows XP
You want fast, cheap, bug-free, always-in-stock hardware? get (a PC for) Windows XP
You want something that's "out there and in use"? get Windows XP
