If you need to run windows, I'd use Win2K. Check this article out about the FBI getting involved With the security problems with WinXP

In addition, Someone in our office recently got a brand new laptop with XP on it and he absolutely hates the performance it gets with XP(Slow Slow Slow).

I use redhat 7.2 here at the office and at home and love it(Came over from Slackware)
