For someone running 2000/98 DB already, no, except that in theory XP can run anything 2000 or 98 can, so in theory according to Microsoft you woudnt need to dualboot at all, which saves a little space. Plus if you dont have 98 around you can use NTFS throughout. And you dont have to consider 98s little quirks like slowing down with more than 512Mb RAM and suchlike.[/QUOTE]Yeah I thought that too. Just wasn't sure if XP could run old DOS programs like 98 can. And I do have 640MB RAM... I was also putting off the upgrade because it's a lot of hassle backing up files, worrying about forgetting something then reinstalling all my applications...
