I recently obtained and installed(dual-boot system) WinXP. Supposedly, it's the final 2600 version. How can I tell for sure exactly which version of XP I have? I really don't want to mess with any beta stuff right now:D

Check in the System Information Utility (Accessories-->System Tools). It should say Build 2600.

Actually, even though I just got it myself, I've noticed a big difference from 2000. I was able to install a scanner and a few games that worked with 98 and not 2000. Seem to me to be a more stable 98/2000 mix.
