Hello David -

DD> And yet Xp runs better on given hardware than W2K - strange. 

XP could've been W2K2 from what I can tell, Microsoft's
marketing people selected a different name?

CA>> Linux does this too btw. :-\ 

DD> Which particular distribution/version of Linux are you

My personal 'hands on' experince has been primarilly with
SlackWare but I'd wager most, if not all, Linux come up
multitasking several tasks.  I haven't checked KNOPPIX
as yet. :-)
