A good reason to investigate linux, learn about it, become proficient in its
use and gain freedom from microsofts control.

Linux is free... you can download .iso files, burn the OS disks and free
yourself from microsofts control... or, simply pick up a copy at a software
store near you, it is very cheap for the already prepared disks and manual.

Thanks John, I run my web server, email server, DNS and loads of other stuff
on a Red Hat Linux 8.0 platform, and I'm very impressed with its stability
and multi-tasking capabilities. The PC concerned is an ancient P200 that
comes nowhere near the minimum requirements for XPee, but despite its
workload, I've not even had to reboot it so far this year.
