- 1. (Windows XP) (1342↑, 231↓)Finally, a fricken OS that stays stable for more than 2 hours. However, the constant 'send error report' shit makes you want to vomit all over your monitor and shit in your hard-drive.
Well, it's better than iMac and [Windows ME]
Author: Bastardized Bottomburp http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/1679182. (Windows XP) (476↑, 71↓)Fairly decent OS from [Microsoft]. More stable than most Windows versions, but has a number of privacy and end-user-rights issues that are questionable at best. Like all Windows builds, is often blindly flamed by idiots with no clue what an OS is or how it works, thinking MS sucks but not having any ideas how they would do it better. Its Fisher-Price looking graphics do however fit in well, considering MS's tech support usually treats you like a toddler.Its better than Win ME, thats for sure.
Author: C++ http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/14128163. (windows XP) (432↑, 128↓)The first time microsoft didn't make an os JUST LIKE the one before it but gave it a different name.WOW Windows XP actuily IS different and it ALMOST works.
Author: DA GUY http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/6130644. (windows xp) (230↑, 67↓)1) Although some would say it is the best OS that MS has made, some would argue that Win 2k is better. I say it is preference. I use WinXP on my computer and it runs near flawlessly. Compatibility (along with other problems) is only a problem encountered by those who can't figure out how to use a search engine to find a solution, so they come here to rant about it. Simple to use, if you follow directions and maybe read the manual, it hardly crashes and always tries to save your system by crashing the violating program. Although the "report error" window is useless, it is better than having to reboot. When you use the system manager (aka ctrl-alt-delete) you can use the "processes" tab to instantly shut down a program without any wait or consequence (in my experience). System important processes are clearly marked "system" so that you cannot accidentally crash windows (unless you are an idiot). 2) An OS made by a company that people like to belittle because they suck at using a user-friendly OS. 3) Not as advanced as Linux, which means it's easier to use, yet not as flexible.1) Windows XP is a fine OS, thanks for a decent on with this time, Microsoft\! 2)d00d, XP sux\! ROFL BOFL\! 3)guy1: "Hmm, which OS should i use?" guy2: "Do you know how to use Linux?" guy1: "No..." guy2: "Use Windows XP"
Author: PacketOverflow http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/8449555. (Windows XP) (216↑, 73↓)A seriously stable operating system. The only reason it would crash, is if you dont know how to properly install new hardware, you built a computer yourself, but you mixed incompatible parts, or you have shitloads viruses and spyware, or because you were a jackass and messed with a program in a way it shouldnt be messed with. Thankfully, you can turn off error reporting.The average user: I have windows XP. Yes. Good. Mac user: cool. Linux user: Yeah..i'm hungry. Linux fanboy: Wtf\!\! y would use dat piece of sh1t\! j00 are a st00p1d N00b. It crfrashedc in like...2 minutes.

Author: The Music Man http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/19447257. (Windows XP) (89↑, 52↓)Windows XP is like any other Microsoft program. You get to share your opnion on how things should work and get to send a report every time things go bad. and they gather all that info, put it on a harddisk several terrabytes big, and do nothing with it. they just keep creating trash sofware so you can keep sharing your opnion. they like that, that way the coders get the attention they don't get at home.A computer without a Microsoft operating system is like a chocolate cake without mustard.
Author: vermin http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/5690488. (Windows XP) (78↑, 53↓)A computer operating system (OS) designed by [Microsoft]. The Proffessional version is a lot better then the Home edition, which is still okay. It is user friendly and only crashes on occasion, usually due to user error. If you don't know how to build a computer or write a program, use Windows XP. If you do, use Linux.Linux User: I know how to build computers, write applications, and just about everything else to do with computers. Windows XP is to user friendly, it sucks\! Windows XP User: You know what, I don't know how to do any of that. I'm using Windows XP.
Author: Shortyafter http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/9719379. (Windows XP) (39↑, 16↓)Since the advent of that abominable Vista, Windows XP has officially become not only the best operating system Microsoft has ever released, but one of the best operating systems EVER released.All my computers run Windows XP. The new laptop I bought came preset with Vista so I did a clean install of Windows XP only to discover that none of the hardware was compatible. I later woke up in the hospital after having suffered a myocardial infarction due to being extremely pissed off. Shame on you Microsoft. You've disappointed us all with your fucking Vista.
Author: XP FOR LIFE http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/337073510.

Author: JeVoNeR http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/38810711. (Windows XP) (49↑, 31↓)Windows 2000 after a facelift. The Professional variant is a decent, robust OS with very few nagging points (provided that you disable all of the extraneous garbage and useless services). The Home Edition variant, however, is crippleware aimed solely at the computer illiterate soccor mom who couldn't tell a mouse from her studded leather dildo; contrary to popular belief, it is crash-prone and becomes very unstable when running more than 2 applications at once. It's "Luna" theme, by the way, is a laughable ripoff of Apple's "Aqua" design theme that is nowhere near being as elegant and intuitive. I don't like Macs very much, but I'd take OSX's svelt brushed metal and blue orb design over Windows XP's clunky blue-and-red coloring book design ANY day.Windows XP Professional - A worthy successor of Windows 2000 Windows XP Home Edition - Dumbed-down bullshit OS that puts the Win2K kernel to shame. Is only marginally more stable than Windows ME, and just as worthless.
Author: Ninja Disaster http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/17545712. (Windows XP) (31↑, 16↓)An operating system known for its revolutionary ability to restart its OS shell and most of its services automatically and almost imperceptibly - without user's awareness and intervention, thus giving an appearence of being much more stable then its predecessors. Has to be installed with network cable plugged out, otherwise gets infected by all sorts of digital microorganisms even before its first run. Tries to connect to obscure destinations about 12 times during install process. Good for consumer-type individuals and large corporations where initial laziness well evolved into symbiosis of corruption and incompetence.Wow - it's another patch tuesday\! Let's go crazy and patch all our Windows XP production servers first\!

Author: Soiled Undergarment http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/20629314. (windows xp) (22↑, 14↓)Windows XP is the latest operating system published by Microsoft Corp. America. It is an accronym for 'Xtreme Performance' and incorporates a wide sense of user friendliness and professional usage capability. Codenamed Whistler after a certain hotel, it is estimated to have captivated over 95% of all computer companies, thus rendering itself the monopolistically dominant computer operating system in the world. Its predecessor is Windows NT, and its successor is said to be Windows Vista [Codename: Longhorn], surfacing in 2006.Windows XP is the most popular operating system in the known world.
Author: aabeba http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/143530415. (Windows XP) (8↑, 3↓)The best damn operating system ever made, except maybe [Windows 2000]. So good, that people are still using it even after 9 years (an eternity in computer time) despite the fact [Microsoft] came out with two more Operating Systems since then.You can tell someone is a jealous mac/linux fanboy by the way they bash Windows XP.

Author: The Great Cornholio http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/42911618. (Windows XP) (0↑, 0↓)A simple yet complex OS, Microsoft has released on October 25, in year 2001. This OS seems to be a highly bloated system based off of the Windows 2000 Professional counterpart. One thing about the biggest difference is IT'S FISHER PRICE THEME .Once setup with proper drivers for display and Video card Non Microsoft signed Drivers as of Microsoft's cheap drivers when the graphics are set first. You will experience this Luna (Default Blue) .msstyle is quite hideous. Most people seem to move back to Classic or the the Olive (Green) .msstyle or the Silver. Yet none of them seem, to kick it off right\! I prefer Classic or Olive (Green) mmm Greeny\!Dude 1. I got Windows XP Dude 2. Hm Luna blue Fisher Price theme is yo theme? Dude 1. Well um Whoa? Dude 2. Dude you can change the theme to Olive or Silver\! Dude 1 Really? huh show me\! Dude 2. Oh dear lord *shows him Olive and Silver* Dude 1. Oh ya I like Olive (Green) Dude 2. Ahh good now both our eyes can feel bit better and not make me wanna puke jelly beans\!
Author: Shadow_Chooses_Olive_Homestead http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/632615319. (Windows XP) (23↑, 28↓)An operating system based on the PlaySkool interface. Magically appeared after Apple introduced it's "Aqua" environment, making the first move to make a computer operating system more enjoyable, and pleasing to the eye. Basically, take Windows 98 and Windows 2000, mix them together and add PlaySkool design techniques, and you have Windows XP.XP User: Whoa dude check out my new Windows XP i just bought\! My start button is GREEN\! HEHEHE\!\!\! Mac User: Oh umm, ok sure.. check this out *moves pointer across dock as it expands* XP User: Whoa thats slick, where did you download that\!? Mac User: Um, i didn't download anything, I purchased a computer from the correct section of the store at CompUSA.

Author: Keijiro H. http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/89685921. (Windows XP) (21↑, 32↓)A program first created in secret by Microsoft Corporation and funded by the US Navy, the sole purpose of which was supposed to be to delete files saved onto the hard disk and not allow any external hardware to be installed on the computers of terrorists. Somehow Bill Gates found out that it could, concievably, be used as an operating system and be used by any normal person with a minumum of 6 years computer training. Needless to say, it made him millions.Godammit, Windows XP is a piece of shit\! *bangs computer*

Author: Eagle_FTW http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/296760123. (Windows XP) (11↑, 25↓)A highly fake new version of Windows which looks like a cross between a 'dead' and a 'duh' emoticon. Windows XP attempted to be pretty, but actually wasn't, as in the start button appeared curved, but the active area is a rectangle. This is one of Microsoft's more stable OS's, but any normal person sticks it into Classic Mode anyway to get rid of that humungous start menu. Microsoft also changed the size of the icons randomly, making all icons not designed for XP look pixellated and crappy. XP takes up a stupidly high amount of resources and disc space, and "requires" a Pentium 3 processor or higher. Windows XP is essentially worthless without buying several other products. Windows XP changed the scrollbar into something visually intrusive and flashy, which is a shame. A good feature of Windows XP is the translucent drag-select, rather than the dotted line of previous versions. Windows XP is a popular entry in UrbanDictionary.com.Noob 1: Whoa, Windows XP is curvy, it must be teh r0x0rs\! \{Installs Windows\} Noob 1: Wtf, my Windows doesn't do anything except Notepad and Paint.
Author: Mucleus http://windows-xp.urbanup.com/134352024. (Windows XP) (18↑, 32↓)I am a network administrator for a company called Audio Video. I know computers in and out. Windows XP is one of the worst OS's Microsoft has made yet. Win2k Pro is actually the best. Easy to network, very nice layout, not TOO userfriendly like XP, and with 2k you can define your own settings. XP is so user friendly that you cant do what you really want to do. Very unstable, and doesn't support most advanced scripts. Most XP computers don't even support OpenGL. That my friend, is sad.Windows XP is like taking Win98 and making it look even worse. Now that my friends, is a bad OS.
