ME compared to XP is like a AMD Duron compared to a Cray X1 supercomputer.

LOL, quite true. ME was rushed because Microsoft wanted to have some release for the new millenium. It is buggy as all hell, and they did end up fixing it. The fix is called WINDOWS 2000.

I wish we had ME back, Our other computer worked great with it, but after being forced to format the hard drive, my brother found that he doesn't have the Windows disks for it, nor has he been able to get any. We had to run on Windows 98 which was crashing all the time... that was until he tried to format the computer again to see if Windows 98 would work better, but then it wouldn't even let him install the internet, so we switched over to our old computer, which runs quite well on Windows 98. Only problem is it has 64MB of RAM, and far too many programmes on it.
