Well one thing I've resigned myself to: If we get the money to buy Windows XP, it will only be installed on one of our networked computers. That is unless Microsoft gives us a really good deal on a license or whatever would be necessary to have XP installed on both computers. We are networked here at home, and have no problems with Windows ME. In fact it set up all our network stuff for us when we installed ME from scratch on both computers. Windows XP did the same.
