Would you rather your computer be completely stable and crash maybe only every other month or less, but have everything automatically install everything for you?
ok......XP is simply an upgrade version of win2k win2k is NT version 5.0 amd XP is version 5.1....its not 20x more stable but there are just a few more new things including the GUI and things are placed in different places. i have both running XP and 2000 and 2000 server and they are yet to crash
as for plug and play part of it...its good to a certain extent for example i had a video card that and my XP installed its own driver...well that driver didn't have the features that the manufacturer's driver had......for someone who don't know about computers XP's PnP is very good, but if u wonna do shit manually then it becomes a pain.
