  Pros

  Easy to use

  Cons

  Slow
  Not compatible for DX10 and higher
  Fisher price interface
  Crashes too much because of drivers
  Shows BSOD's for no reason
  No IE9
  Bad 64-bit support
  Insecure

  Summary

  Windows XP is not a good OS, because it keeps crashing for no reason and it's so ******* slow, even if you have 1-2GB of memory. If you have XP, I recommend that you upgrade to Vista SP1+ or 7 now.

  Yikes! Whatever you do, don't use Vista period! 7 is good though.

  Yes XP is not perfect but hardly slow compared to the bloated and rushed VISTA. If you perform a clean install with XP and your computer is still slow then its your hardware or you have the wrong drivers installed. This is not XP's fault.
  
  The next step is to buy a new computer with 7. You can get a new one for a couple hundred and if you need a great computer for tech then you can build your own for a few hundred as well. I'm sure there are techs in your town that can help you. Either way the rule of thumb is XP for old computers, and 7 for new ones. And if you absolutely can't stand XP for whatever reason then switch to linux. It's free and way more secure.
