Maybe the best way to answer your problem is by asking one first. Do you already own an XP installation disk? The latest ubuntu 9.10 release can be downloaded and download to disk at any time being a free open source OS as other Linux distributions.

The thing here will be to compare the items you mentioned there against?

1) Graphics: Windows wins over Linux in most cases.

2) Security: ubuntu surely has the advantage over Windows XP

3) Games: Windows XP and. Most are pc games to start with.

4) Music: Again Windows offers far more while the default Windows Media Player in xp

5) Video: windows xp can play all kinds of video

6)Pictures: programs like older versions of Photoshop, Windows Picture viewer etc. improved for Vista and 7.

I will go with Ubuntu, as we know Today Ubuntu has become very popular and there are many people who use Ubuntu and very happy with it. This is a Linux-based OS with a strong focus on usability and ease of installation. Ubuntu is an operating system developed by the open source community. The most important thing about Ubuntu in a philosophical context, is that after the installation and use of their right of free software for the people. These freedoms have allowed the Ubuntu community to grow.
