Ya I'd say Xp but the problem with Xp and microsoft in genral is security. Windows xp support raw ports which are suppost to allow hackers to enter your computer with little effort. Microsoft thoery: Hackers can hack into computer whether or not we have raw ports open or not so there is no point in stalling them... That is not exactly what they said... Hey if you have a car and there is a lock on it could a theif still break in sure. But you wouldnt leave it unlocked right even if it makes it easier for u to open.
