Does anyone have any experience with these tyres ? I have read the reviews over at Tyre/Tire Rack, and they seem less than complimentary, the main issues/complaints seem to be soft sidewalls and poor wheel balance. Any other experiences would be appreciated.

I just upgraded to Win XP Pro on my computer. It's a little older than today's PCs (P3 700Mhz, 256Mb, 160Gb HDD, circa 2000). I was previously running Win ME. I have a HP Deskjet 5652 printer. It worked fine under ME (although I recall the installation was also troublesome without a reboot)...
