From: "Gary Britt" 

The very limited experience I have with XP, have been very frustrating.
Everything seems to be in a different place and hidden behind layers of
"assistants" and "help" that make the MS Office
paperclip seem like a very functional slim and trim help system.

Why does MS continually have to change the names of things and move them
around so experienced users are completely dumbfounded?

I'm sticking with win98 and Win2K Pro just as long as I possibly can.  XP
seems like an awful, strange cartoon interface.

Am I alone in this thinking?

Gary
