Running XP on $EMPLOYERS laptop and it's not bad, not to be confused with it
works wonderful and everyone should use it.  Install SP1 and you can change
the default programs for email and web browsing as well as instant messaging.
XP by default starts the microsoft chat client but once you install SP1 you
can disable that crap.
