My laptop is a Dell Inspiron, and at the time, the only options I had were WinME or WinXP (home or pro). I wanted Win2K, but I would have had to buy a Latitude, and they weren't available with a DVD player back then.
I wanted to see what was new in Windows XP, and I had a little bit of time on my hands. I just found it odd, and all my co-workers thought it was hillarious.
