Well it is the final cleanout of my screanies before I get a new system.  As of Thursday or Friday I should have it.

Thanks.

The new system:

Duron 1.2GHz Proccessor
256MB DDR Ram
20GB Hardrive
56K Modem
Windows 98
GeForce4 64 MB Graphics Card

Its not an extremely upgraded computer but its new and the fastest one I could find that didn't have Windows XP.

I just dont like XP.  Ive used to many computers that had xp and seem to run a bit sluggish.  And I have a few programs that will not run at all on XP.  Ive tryed them.  But I like 98 better than most other windows versions.  It seems to be able to run about anything.

Same here! I didn't want XP but decided to go for it with the new one. I am completely converted - I love it!

Nice shots!  :D ...
But I'm a little puzzled as to why you don't like XP  ???.... it's smooth and much easier to configure than any of the previous Windows O\S's.. and as for the programs that you say wont run theres a compatibility mode which fools XP into thinking its running a pre XP program as an XP program. I for one would not be without it !! ;D

That second shot is really nice :).


As for XP I find it easier to use myself.


Cheers....Happy Landings...Doug :)
