Office XP
Epson Printer & Scanner

End user..odd game....spreadshhet work...& basic internet useage.

I am about to connect to ADSL from DUN, and wish to know more about
how the various O/S's would or would not improve my system
significantly. Support for 98SE, only if I should need it..?

I am happy with 98SE but unsure if I would be any better off with say
'XP'.??........speeds??

What are the differences in O/S's ??

Do I need to U/G.

I am able to run my mostly used App' (Office XP) ok with 98SE.

I do not fancy reformatting as it took a while to get all my many
Apps' & utils' etc. installed, as well as customising the PC.

I read here of many problems encountered when upgrades are attempted.

TIA




Win98 is immune for most worms which make cyberspace dangerous. XP can be
slightly faster. I wouldn't upgrade.
