And putting another OS or replacing your OS on your PC can be a headache, but it also be easy, so not every situation is the same.... But once again, if you have pirated programs, M$ can't do anything about it anyway, so no worries.

Good luck. and for games, it is not as bad as everyone says, its not the greatest.... so good luck
you should really scroll up, and look at the link skink posted....

as of now, it's not much, only really for pirating music/movies... (copying it to your computer) but i'm willing to bet it's not going to stop there....

oh btw, i'm very comfterable with windows, especially xp... i wouldn't consider using anything other then windows... i don't have really any problems with xp either... now don't get me started on windows ME.... that shit drove me bat-shit insane... i have no problems with spyware, adware, viruses... i don't even have a anti-virus on my comp... and i haven't ever really had a need for one.. you just gotta be smart with what you're doing...
