I think I've got my old 98se and 2000 OS's laying around at home somewhere if you wanted to run one of them instead of buying XP. You'd still have to download all the drivers for your machine and have them ready.

That would be awesome Scott, I don't really care what OS I have, as long as it runs what I need, which isn't dependant on the type of OS.
