After the painful times of Windows 3.1, I finally upgraded to my first PC with Windows 95. With my Pentium 1 and 8 mb of memory I was flying in the world of computers. Well, then the computer evolution came blowing everything out of porportion into large numbers, and I had to get a new computer. Well this new state of the art machine I got had 128 mb, 10Gb, Celeron 500, and Windows 98. This was perfect for me in the computer world. Well, I decided to get new memory in June, and after wanting to get my computer in top shape, I found out my hard drive had died. So after many $$$$ later, I now have an almost new machine with 256 mb, 60 Gb ATA 133 7200 RPM Hard Drive, and Windows XP!

I can't say anything bad against XP yet except for one thing: it may be something as simple as security settings, but I am unable to access many pages on the internet. Including both the FIRST page, my team page, and the Pennsylvania website. Any suggestions?

If I had the patience to try it out, and my mom would feel like learning about a new OS, I would really like to give Linux a fair chance. However, I have always shunned away from Macs, and will never own one.
