Re: OT: Considering changing OS (Poll)

XP does have some stupid looking buttons and such, but you can get rid of those rather easily. Pro runs around $300, but you can find a "copy" of it on Kazaa or other places like it. I used it for quite awhile before getting a free legal copy.

Win XP Pro OEM:
Newegg.com $136.00
(Probably need to by MB or HDD)
Directdeals.com $139.00
(won't need to by anything)
Since it's OEM, don't expect any help from Microsoft (No, I'm not trying to be funny!)
