I'm looking to upgrade from ME to XP real soon, and i have
a question for everyone...

My computer is acting strange (locks up constantly, acts
as stable as Ozzy Osbourne after a weekend bender at
Starbucks, etc...) and i've been told that ME is no good,
is evil, etc. ...So i'd rather format the hard drive, and
completely forget about ME, and use the ME disks as coffee
cup coasters etc.

If i do this (format drive), does it mean i have to buy
the full XP package? Or can i save $99 and only buy the
upgrade? I'm really weary of ME (several bad crashes) and
would rather get rid of it all together. Saving the money
would be nice, but if i have to, i'll buy the full package.

thanks! :)
john
