Agreed. I use Windows ME at one point of time and wondered why people keep complaining ME is so unstable, when mine was stable and fine (unless I plug in my USB modem, ethernet works well though).
Also, I use XP Home, it came with my laptop. So if PDF is supported on XP Home, that's good.
And we aren't talking bad about Linux, to those who think so. These are the facts.
BTW: if you hibernate your PC instead of turning it off, you can reach 47+ days update quite easily.
