I just dont get it?
The only thing I did notice is everyday Id have to restart it to keep it from crashing. Other then that it was fine.
Everyone I knew seemed to have problems with ME. I used it until it became outdated and I threw in the dumpster.
It still worked just had no use for it.
Back in 2000 It was $800 on sale wal-mart

it's all about the money brother..they create all the new programs and operating systems to use more resources just to get you to buy a new pc, component upgrades...also they stop the updates and make new hardware only compatible with a new os to force your hand
so basically, to answer your question, i used it too and had no problems at all, but then comes the microsoft money machine and now they want everyone to buy a new pc and use Vista

I agree with you.
I still have a (optical imaging) system running at a company that is on a 386 PC with Windows 3.11. It's still working so we don't fix it. Of course Gates has missed out on about $1,000 from me.
Don't get me wrong, I love XP and Vista. I just think the cost should be no more than $10 a year for all updates and you're constantly up to date with the latest version. And the software should run well on all, even old, hardware.
I have a laptop now with Ubuntu Linux and Beryl desktop, FREE, since Vista is a dog on it. I might use it on all my computers it's that good.

It had limited capability that was outstripped by modern hardware. Very unstable above 512mb ram.
It was never as stable as Windows XP. A lot of times when XP locks it will come back. I know I'm not going to be popular by saying this but XP just has a lot less critical failures due to poor software coding. IT guys love it.
Mainly due to the fact that the Core files will not allow other poorly written pieces of software to muck it up.

The problem with ME was that you had to keep restarting it every day to keep it from crashing.

Microsoft Windows Vista is the right choice. Exept if your pc hardware is not supporting.
