Without a doubt, XP Pro should be your choice. I find it easier to use than W2K. It also seems snappier. In additional, the use of Clear Type will make the display clearer. Make sure it's XP Pro and not XP Home.

>I'm just about to purchase a new laptop pc, but I'm torn between having W2K pro or XP pro as the pre-installed operating system. I already have W2K on my desktop pc and I am perfectly happy with it, but I am being pushed towards XP by the vendors. Has anyone good or bad experiences of either?
