This is off-topic, but I cannot keep myself from mentioning that on my 3
different machines (Pentium II. 350, Celeron 500, Athlon 1330) XP
crashes regulary with a (graphical) BSD (which according to Microsoft
does not exist any more...). Mostly during startup in various system
drivers, all of which is provided by Microsoft,, but I can crash the OS
sometimes with starting winamp, or debugging in Delphi 3. I had fewer
problems with 98.
