NT (Windows 2000, XP Professional) is an enterprise solution because of its stability, security, and scalability. However, most home audio users will be better off with Windows 9xthough it is different under the hood, the user interface is the same except for device management and a few because it is easier to use, configure, has better legacy support, and there is more consumer oriented software available designed for it. With NT it is not any harder to install on good hardware/software (actually quicker) and other issues. It is far more stable the 98 will ever be if you are running multiple apps.
