 |
|
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. |

Easy peasy. I've never had a problem making a bootable XP disc. Try the Google Oracle for guidance.  |
