Windows XP SUMMARY The new Windows XP has hitting the media hard since it’s release. According to PCWorld.com about half of the XP users that completed a survey were unhappy with the results from the operating system. As expected from any new OS there were a few bugs. Microsoft is now scurrying to provide the makeshift drivers needed for printers, scanners, and other peripherals. The problem occurs when consumers of XP upgrade only to learn about these bugs after it’s too late. Brent Lawrence of Stokie, Illinois, discovered that after updating to XP his NEC1260 laser printer supported only 300-dpi output. This was boggling because with Windows 98 he was printing at 600-dpi. After arguing with NEC and blaming Microsoft for this partial support of his printer, he converted back to Windows 98. This just one of many complaints about this new XP operating system. A clean install is mentioned by a user to be the solution for most of the problems that can occur. After being unsatisfied with the regular installation a man experimented with this clean install and said “it worked like a dream.” This IS manager also stated that it’s the best version of windows yet.
