Hacking XP
Settle down now, pardner. If Windows XP finally has you mad enough to buy a MacBook, this is the story for you. We’ve got 11 hacks here that can get your computer running faster, increase your productivity, and make Windows XP just a little less annoying than it was before you read this story.
Although its successor, Windows Vista, is only months away from release (or so Microsoft tells us), XP will remain the dominant operating system for years to come. After you’ve lived with XP for a while, it’s easy to find aspects of it aggravating or kludgy. Even a simple thing—being forced to reboot after updates are installed, for instance—can be tiresome, and we’ve got a workaround for that inside these pages. You’ll also find a good way to win back some precious disk space, and complete instructions for jettisoning Microsoft Messenger if it’s not your chat client of choice.
All told, one of many benefits you can get from the XP hacks that we’ve collected here is more time. And who doesn’t need that these days?
