  Duration of ownership: 1

  Strengths: none

  Weaknesses:lots

  Overall Evaluation: It requires that it be activated. Microsoft says it is a pirated software and won't activate the software. all internet addresses inputed come up saying no key for active activation. It also says that there is 30 days to activate. After that I hope that the machine won't quit working, I went back to restore to before installing this version and there is no restore back. I had to pick one star but I would pick no stars if I had the choice. The version sent to me was a Dell reinstallation cd for distribution only with a new dell pc. I wanted to upgrade to pro from home edition to facilitate networking for a tax program for 2010. update 12/30/10 I finally got the program to activate, so I am happy with the purchase. I think that the install process somehow messed up the internet explorer (I had version 6). I went on another computer and downloaded internet explorer 7 and installed it on the machine I was having the problem with and it automatically updated to version 8. When I went to the reconnect to internet process, the internet worked fine and I was then able to activate the windows XP Pro.

  Duration of ownership:

  Strengths: Very stable. Fast reboot.

  Weaknesses:However, my reboot is not as fast as other reboots I have seen on other pc's. I think it may be my computer.

  Overall Evaluation: I use this product on my laptop and my desktop pc at home. I have found it to be very stable on both with less times rebooting. Also, I have notice that my overall pc performance is faster.

  Duration of ownership: 30 Days

  Strengths: Reasonably priced, fast shipping, a powerful and versatile tool.

  Weaknesses:None that I can think of. Windows XP Professional is one outstanding operating system.

  Overall Evaluation: Windows XP Professional is a versatile tool to use in today's world or working with computers. It is straight forward and easy to use. It is built on NT technology, but incorporated back into the realm of a Windows Desktop environment. I have found Windows XP to be a much better product than I originally antipipated when XP was first released. I am very happy with XP, and do not see myself using any other OS for quite some time.
