Group policy and user switching. Well as its just me on this machine why would I care?
NTFS is wonderful, apart from nothing else being able to even look at it, so I don't use it. And all the volume security and other such stuff, yes I'm sure its wonderful for admins. I'm not an admin.
As I said the networkings gotten better. Not as fast as it should and it still could be better, but yes Bill did add TCP/IP. Woot.
Less crashes? Maybe. I had a WinME system that was solid. I realise though that I was perhaps just lucky with my hardware choices, others hated ME and all it stood for. XP on the other hand had to be reinstalled about 3 times in the first month (OK bad stats there as I had misc. hardware problems complicating things.
)
And compatability. Well if Bill hadn't changed everything for no benefit (to me at least. I was never a security muppet, I had a firewall and anti-virus) with XP the it wouldn't
need compatability.
Ohh shinier. Which in fact means 'slower'.
