Hi Ann All you need is a card reader to use Windows 98. I now have WinXP but I still download to the computer via a card reader.
Peter is right - the Pentax software doesn't run on 98 so, if you shoot RAW you need another raw converter. One you could consider is Silkypix - it has a free mode and it will run on 98. http://www.isl.co.jp/SILKYPIX/english/index.html No need to go to Windows 2000 unless you really want to....
