9x wins 9x wins!

Gonna play all my games in 9x now! ;(

Only thing I see wrong with this article is comparing XP Home to 2000 Pro. Where's XP Pro?

Heh, 98 won't be the gamers choice for much longer. The memory management issues (and M$ refusal to fix them under its new support policy) in 9x will bite gamers on the *** much sooner than they realise.

Did they benchmark the fact that you have to reboot after switching between games when using Win9x or the fact that games have a tendancy to crash. Then you have to add the fact that I've had friends lose saved games under FAT32. Does a few extra fps justify the use a POS OS like the win9x series?
