This question is asked here periodically, and always gets a
string of "humorous" responses. The correct answer is eXPerience.
 
i think the code name of the windows xp project was "chiro" and when
written in greek it is "chi and ro" or XP..
 
According to Microsoft, XP means "eXPerience".

LOL, and also according to Microsoft, NT in Windows NT stands for nothing.

My guesses would be:
Extra Problems
Extra Putrid

eXtremely Poor

This has got to be the worlds longest beta test of an operating system. So
far I have not found any reason to drop Windows 2000 for XP and quite a few
reasons to drop XP and replace it with Windows 2000. In some cases, I've
even got better performace going to Windows 98 from Windws XP.
 
Well, you are all wrong...it stands for eXpect People to ask what XP stands for.
