The letters "XP" stand for eXPerience. Codenamed "Whistler", after Whistler, British Columbia, as many Microsoft employees skied at the Whistler-Blackcomb ski resort during its development. Windows is Microsofts' brandname.

Windows XP is an operating system from Microsoft. There are different versions of XP; Home, Pro, Media.
An operating system is the 'traffic cop' inside your computer that directs everything you do...from handling keyboard inputs, to putting and retrieving data from your disk drive, to sending stuff to your screen...and so forth.

Well, there's the "eks-dee" face commonly used: XD
and the tounge sticking out face commonly used: :-P
I've always seen the XP as a compination of those two faces.
:-P
I know that's not right, but it's fun!

It depends on my mood. usually, it means experience. But sometimes I think it's experimental.
