    Is that a link to a windows ME upgrade or even XP upgrade

    98SE was a good operating system, then they released ME which IMHO was a beta test version of some fancy bits.

    The only real OS I have actually liked using at the current time believe it or not is XP Pro without the blue theme and the teletubbies background so its more a 2000 retro look

    Believe it or not tho' a lot of friends of the family who have OLD pc's still use 98 and they have less issues than some of my friends running XP
