If 98 ain't broken then don't fix it and keep it running until it either breaks (experience regular or random crashes, freezes often, etc.) or it's time to get a new computer, whatever comes first. Of course XP is much better than 98 or ME, but when migrating from an older computer you will first have to make sure you have enough memory (256 Mb I'd say) and then make sure you get new drivers for all your hardware and then you could upgrade.. This could be as easy as sitting back for half an hour drinking coffee, or it could be long nights of hell. However as you're a 'The Bat!' user you're likely to have a keen interest in computers and making them work best so you'll probably upgrade anyway. :-) I'm running XP now, though I feel that Windows 2000 was more stable, and as I turned all the cartoony features of XP off anyway it's virtually the same in functionality and appearance. For home use though I would probably stick with XP over 2000; if I was in charge of a company network then I'd go with Win 2K.
