A Nice Surprise that Surpassed My Expectations!

13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Very stable, lots of options and flexibility, Product Activation not so onerous.
Cons Not compatible with some older programs and hardware.
Recommended it? Yes

I resisted Windows XP for a long time. First off, I don't like the idea that there's a separate Home version that's a "light" version of the Professional Edition. I think this is just a little confusing.

Second the cost. To upgrade an older operating system to Win XP Pro costs about... Read full review »

WindowsXP x64: A Professional Choice?

bytheuerkorn Aug 27, 2005
49 Helpfuls 50 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Transparent with most 32bit applications, slight improvements (multi cpu applications and...
Cons Availability, price, driver availability, very few cosmetic changes, limited true 64bit...
Recommended it? No

WindowsXP is getting old and Vista (formerly known as Longhorn) is on a relaxed schedule. AMD's successful push to 64bit CPU technology has been largely unanswered by software industry -- mainly due to a lack of a 64 bit capable Windows.
