XP or Linux

If you want it to be an easy setup and more or less work right out of the box, then use XP pro w/sp2. xNIX on the other hand is very stable, but has less software/game support and requires a more complete understanding of PC�s Win 2k is ok, but will not be as easy to set up on a newer system, and is end of life. So there will be no additions to its functionality, only security patches.

In my opinion Linux is better for a server, and WinXP is beter for a desktop and games. So I have one of each.
