Does anyone remember XP? (Score 1)

Some people's memories are shorter than their *****. This is the same crap people were saying about XP before SP2 came out. For about the first 2 years of XP's life, it was abysmal. There were countless driver support errors, migration problems, bugs worse than the biblical locusts, and hardware requirements that meant everyone had to basically go out and get all new machines. Not to mention - who remembers trying to navigate around in XP after being used to 2000/NT? I remember that I HATED XP, I mean REALLY HATED XP, for almost 2 years until it became the de facto standard for OS's during the SP2 release. Moral of the story, chicken little, is that an OS is the single most complicated piece of software known to man and if it doesn't work fresh from the developer desktop, the world will not cease to exist. Give it time and be patient and soon, it will become the new standard. Microsoft and all its users will continue to compute in symbiotic harmony. Enjoy!
