Macs will never come back over Windows, mostly because no one wants to learn a new program.  Plus a lot of professional programs are windows based, so switching to a different operating system is just not an option for most consumers.  Macs are crazy expensive too.  I would never buy one, even though I appriciate the rejection of windows.

There is no more virtual machine in windows XP and windows 2000\nI think this option was available in windows 9x products.\n\nWindows XP and 2000 are fully 32bit operating systems.

Though I do not know why you would want to, you can do that, but you can only use one of those operating systems at a time.  I would not bother though seeing as XP realistically is a much better OS (especially with SP2) and will do everything that 2000 will.  It is up to you, but realize, the OS that is on your default boot drive will be the one that loads up.  So if you set the default boot drive to C: then XP will load.  There are a couple ways around it, but you can still only run one at a time.  Besides, those two would likely conflict with one another anyway.

If you install XP you WILL get a viruses and spyware. It doesn't matter if there's good in XP because there's too much bad.\n\nI switched last year and bought an iMac and I'll NEVER go back to Windows.

You can't upgrade Windows 2000 to XP Home.  You can upgrade Windows 2000 to XP Pro.  That is probably why you now how two operating system on your machine now.\n\nIf you want to put XP Home on that machine, only, you will have to do a full reformat.

MAC and Windows run on two different types of software, so there is no way to install the Mac OS on a PC. However, Mac recently came out with a dual booting computer, meaning that it can run Windows. As well, Mac has a program called "Virtual PC" that simulates Windows on Mac OS.\nTo sum it up, if you want the Mac OS, looks like youd better buy a new Mac.

Windows because it is an unstable operating system and unsecure compared to Mac or Linux. Windows is the most common OS because Microsoft pay for other companies to put it on when you buy a computer and most people stick with it. It works quite well if you know how to use it. Most errors and problems come from the user doing something wrong, not the OS suddenly making errors.\n\nYou shouldn't experience registry erros unless you get a virus/spyware or start messing with regedit.

Will probably even run Win98, But if Win95 is around, do it, Windows no longer has support for those operating systems

Well, you could buy a program called VirtualPC. VirtualPC emulates Windows (any version you want) and you will be able to run any Windows (PC) program on your Mac. Since you actually are running another operating system on your computer, you will be using some hard drive space, RAM, and ROM.

"And i wish apple users would quit claiming they never crash...they DO. Windows XP is perfectly stable, so unless you install all the crap of the day i don't see a problem"\n\nComments like the above are from closed minded people who have not spoken to a person who is open minded and has used Mac OS X....Apple users know that Mac OS X can AND will crash....but how many Mac users have you met that have had a kernel dump (in short, a really bad type of crash) four times in one month!?!?! I work with computer operating systems of all types: FreeBSD, Windows, Mac OS X.....\nSo I know a little about about stability...\n\nYes they are expensive, but consider the following:\n\nMicrosoft has 94% of the market, how else can Apple make money, but by charging (what I think) is a little too much for a desktop....?\n\nOn the other hand the Hardware is not Dell-Cheap....($400 for a computer!?!) the hardware Apple puts together is GOOD hardware nothing cheap about it.....\n\nApple computers are not for Gamers, they are for Developers Musicians, Artist, Programmers...and so on..., but if you want something diferrent other than Linux, go with the iBook, my friend just bought her first apple product iBook with a 14.1" screen ^_^, and she loves it (speshal_kim), and she has no regrets....(she moved from a HP......running Windows XP Home Edition)\n\nHeres a Tip: READ, READ, READ about the products you buy, and search for the best deal....\n\nA few more things that can help in your decision:\n\nOne: There are only a few virus (compared to Windows), so get some kind of virus protection....\n\nTwo: You can find software to do everything on Mac OS X...\n\nHere you go: \nwww.pure-mac.com\n\nThree: Dont buy a computer in a store if you dont have to, you can save on the Tax and Shipping by purchasing your iBook online......\n\nHere is another:\nhttp://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=393032&is=REG&addedTroughType=categoryNavigation\n\n\nand remember to do research before you buy your machine\n\nSometimes its just a matter of preference... ^_^

Buy a Dell they have a better reputation.  PC's run XP, they no longer really come with MS-DOS or Windows 95/98 (which ran on top of MS-DOS) any more!

If you're looking for your version...click on Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> System. It should say there. Or try Start -> Control Panel -> System.\n\nIf you want to see a lift of Operating Systems, go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_system .

There should really only be XP Home Full or XP Home Upgrade.  I'm not aware of any variations on the home edition in terms of versions.  And there's no volume licensing for it, so any version of home should work unless you try to install the full version and only have an upgrade key - then you'll need a key from a previous version of Windows.
