I dont find winxp fragile and my understanding is that it is pretty win 2000 with some capabilities in multimedia that 2000 lacks. This explains the problem not collusion in the industry. well thats their story and I am sticking to it. Sounds like you need to become more savvy in operating your computer if you live in fear of msconfig; it should be your friend. Read an article on the web about it, with all the spyware around a person needs to know how to use msconfig IMHO
