    Default What OS should I choose for my laptop?

    Hey people,

    I got my hands on some laptop, (hurray for office work)
    Anyway since I travel alot a laptop is welcome.
    But it has nothing on it installed so. TT.TT

    It's a HP Compaq nx9105,
    You can find more information when you google it.
    The only thing I will do with my laptop are these:

    Ragnarok Online (very important)
    Listen Music (hurray for limewire)
    Watch Movies/series/porn (hurray for torrents)
    Internet (duhhhhhh)

    That would be it.

    definitvely xp

    vista on 512mb is like xp on 32mb ram, sufficient, but you can barely run anything, not to mention its a laptop too...

    windows 2000 and 95 are out of the question?
    Or are they almost the same as XP?

    some say 2000 is better then xp, but honestly i dont know so i cant say its better....

    but i guess 2000 need even less resources, so you might wanna check that too

    95 is out of the question, way too old and barely anything from the past 5years is going to run on that

    I never really ran 2000, but I'd stick with XP. 95 is NOT good. Lol. I hated 95.
