I decided, thanks to the persuasive abilities of Gang Ah, to go get me a PC on payday.

I dont want stinking Windows XP.

So, is there anyone out there with a lesser version of Windows in English who's willing to burn or borrow me a copy?

Feel free to PM me.

I've got Win2K Pro. XP would be (and is), better.

Does anyone know where I can get an English version?? Xp Pro that is, not XP Home Edition.

PM me WB if you want to suss it out...

If you wan't a copy that will boot from CD (difficult to make - never been successful yet) then follow the directions on Lemons Guide to Shopping in Yongsan and buy a CD from the guy in the tunnel. I did and everything runs perfect. he's got tons of stuff there, most of it is available from kazaa. English windows I think runs you about 20,000won maybe less.

I used XP. I'd like something with less bells and whistles. 98'd be fine.

But nothing like Linux, I'm not a barbarian.

But it's not about the bells and whistles; You're only thinking of the GUI but the most important differences- the ones that make XP better than than Win9x- are the ones you can't see.
