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.
