The idea of moving to XP never convinced me and I stayed with W2000. The main reason (price apart) was the very annoying feature of being a Hardware dependent licensing system.

You change almost anything in the HW (not to mention a new PC) and your wonderful XP will refuse to boot.

So you may have to buy it again! That is nonsense and a clear abuse from MS.
