Hoi, may be some of u own a dualboard and could give me a little hint if it's better to use XP or 2k with it,.. if it doesn't matter,I'll stick with 2k if Xp would be better,...

Ps.: Up to now, I think of XP as a 2k with tuned GUI,...

well.. your view isn't so incorrect but there's a bit more to it than that: http://www.doom9.org/winxp.htm . However, if you only care about dual cpu support and are indifferent to the rest you can throw a coin.. it doesn't really matter. Both should have equally good SMP support. Of course, you'll need WinXP Pro, the personal version only supports 1 CPU.

I would say that winXp Pro is more optimized more stable and as doom9 says offers a lot more than W2k.
