    XP SP2 is what everyone remembers, too. It wasn’t very good at release and a lot of people stayed on 2000.

      Indeed. Plug and play didn’t (mostly) get figured out until SP2. Drivers were still quite a nightmare at that time.

      2000 though was a server version. Not technically consumer.

      I’ve honestly haven’t had any problems with XP SP1. I’ve had it on a couple computers back in the day. I remember that the upgrade to SP2 wouldn’t always go well. Sometimes requiring a reinstall.
