Thanks Ed. I was a little leery about defending Win ME as so many people seem to dislike it and they seem to think that anyone that is using it is an idiot. :) But it has worked very well for me and as they say "different OS's (strokes) for different folks".
Did you have much trouble upgrading to XP? Now that is one OS that I am a little hesitant about trying to upgrade to. And I'm not into a lot of multimedia and networking. There is just one little computer and little ole me (my husband is computer-phobic). I have been reading the pros and cons of XP and have about decided to stick with ME as it does everything I need and does it well. Now that I've said that, it will probably crash and burn!

I have been running it on 2-systems since it's inception in Sept Y2k I believe is the date. I have never had a system crash (knock on wood), have made some bad installations and was thankful for the RESTORE feature to bring things back to the last good boot before installing the bad program. I also have Win-2K, Professional version which is a piece of junk as I see it. . .It was such a problem that I messed with it for about a month, and now the CD is in a drawer along with the 5-floppy installation disks. I recently installed Win-XP on one of my systems and it is working good and also has the restore feature like Win-Me. I'm surprised with the stable handling of all the programs and it works really well with IE6 and the MS Media player. Ed ============= PCWorks Mailing List ================= Don't see your post?
