when I use Windows (not that I prefer to), I use 2000 or XP because previous versions (such as 95, 98(SE), Me) crash whenever I try to do anything that requires resources; and when they don't crash immediately, eventually just run very low on resources until a reboot is needed--which is much too often
Windows 2000 and XP boot much slower than 95/98(SE), but they keep running stably for weeks or even months+ unlike the others
the main problem with Windows Me's that it doesn't run as stable as it should unless you cleanly install it (upgrading creates a disaster) -- I used Me over 98 SE for a while because it had more hardware support built-in, and ran much more stably for me (maybe it depends on your hardware -- I know that a lot of people had problems with it)
I believe that Windows 2003 is (going to be) much better than 2000/XP, but I'm not one to support the .NET idea

wow, this hardly makes sense.. what am I drugged on?
