XP-64 was the pinnacle of Windows operating systems. They basically took the 64-bit build of Server 2003 and threw the consumer OS software packages onto it. So it felt like you were running Server but without all the issues you normally have trying to use Server as a desktop machine.
memries tho
for those of you who want to experiment, and see how it was, back when OS's respected you,
Well "respect" is a relative term. XP was the first OS that required online (or phone) activation. And the first to complain about "non-genuine" versions if it detected you were using a pirate key. That pissed a lot of people off at the time. Win2K was probably the last version that "respected" (or at least "trusted") its customers.
But XP was the last OS where I felt like I was getting something from upgrading.
