Well, it should be pointed out that not all cards are helped by newer drivers, so for the older chipsets often older drivers are the best choice.

Yes, I use a Visor Deluxe with XP. The version 3 drivers incuded seemed to have a driver issue, but the 4.0.1 verion of Palm Desktop from Handspring worked fine.

It seems that the XP detonators are quite unstable still. Try using the older Win2000 drivers they have there, they have worked fine for me with WinXP.

Intellimouse Optical plugged into USB. The movement is better than PS/2, though PS/2 is adjustable.

So far, with the latest patches. Everything I have tried works as well if not better in XP as it did in 2000.

http://sourceforge.net/ emthompson, go there, do a search for win32, lots of open source win32 apps. You really do need to reword that poll. There is no magic to open source apps. It's not that some operating systems support it and some don't. All do. It's just a matter of if the developer(s) release the code or not and allow others to mess with it. An operating system ITSELF being open source though seperates it from others, and would make this work.

Remote desktop is a security concern, but not much more of one than having a telnet server running. About ISS, hard to tell, ,ay be some kind of bug in XP that keeps it from detecting that you're logged in as an admin.

Really, this isn't a good question. There are lots of open source applications that are for win32, and actually it's possible for apps programmed for unix (and Linux) to be run on Windows. Now, an open source OS that can run win32 apps perfectly in itself is something that can be interesting.

Well, I'm one of those people who had good luck with ME. It was as stable as 98SE, the features were somewhat useful, and I did notice better network performance under ME. It does happen.

Well, these 'XP' drivers may not have gains for the standard GeF 2 line, but they did bring signifigant speed gains to my MX, so it's not just for the 3.

I have seen Socket 370 and A motherboards for AT. They are quite rare though and I honestly don't remember where I saw them online. If I run into them again I'll post here, just doing so now so you know that they do exist.

Ah, looks like they added an activation reset to it for XP, and it worked, thanks.

No, he didn't. It appeared to me that that was just to prevent PCs from getting confused on a network by having the same ID though. In this case, the old drive will be erased.
