Don't be fooled by what MS did.... just because you see the desktop faster doesn't validate a faster startup time. Most of the XP boxes I have worked on aren't much faster if you take look compare the times of when the operating system is "ready to use."

Other than that, I agree.... MS is getting better, but I am still hanging on to Win2000.... I have too many quirky issues with the XP Pro boxes in our domain to root for XP just yet.
