Few points.
- I don't believe that there is any such thing stable enough to be caled
XP-final, or even XP-beta ;) Specially when compared to the Linux kernel
standards of stability.
- It is not necessary to compare linux with other low grade software ;)
They may not work. But linux do.
- I nevey use nor plan to use XP so I don't care if it doesn't work.

I couldn't, too ;)
