Hidden Tools of Windows 98 SE
When I was poking around my c:/windows/system files I found so many weird programs like ----------------- Dr.Watson Jdbgmgr which is a Debugger Mkcompat Internat(Language Selector) Program Manager Qfecheck(Shows All Windows Updates) Setdebug(Another Debug Prog.) Telnet Winipcfg(IP Configuration) Wscript(Windows Scripting Host) Winrep(Windows Report Tool, Similar to Windows XP's Error Feedback) Winpopup(Networked Chat App. for LAN PC's) Upwizun(Update Wizard) Thats all I could Find For now, but does anyone know why would Microsoft make all these hidden programs tucked nealty in the systems folder?

Realistically, how much longer can Win98 be kept viable?
Heck I say switch to firefox,I barley use IE and Would Galdly uninstall it if it wern't for the intigration with Windows Explorer.Firefox Poses a great threat to the IE Legacy and if it werne't for Bill Gates and his Auto-Install of IE with every OS, firefox would be #1.Its my best choice for a browser for windows 98, and with the continued support for firefox 2, it will be around wit Windows98 Users for a while

Realistically, how much longer can Win98 be kept viable?
As Much as I love Windows 98 I give it about 3-4 Years Before 100% of Developers and Manufacutrers Stop Supporing Windows 98.There will be compatability issues by then and many people regretiably would have switched to Windows XP Sp1 at least.I forsee a Grim Future for Windows 98 And I don't like it.Unless Microsoft lets Windows 98 Be open source there is no way Windows 98 can live more than 2 Years 5 Years tops.Even With gr8 folks like Gabe and Tihiy Upgrading the OS there is still to many Obsolete Coding that prevents it from going into a new facelift

Best graphics card for 98SE?
I have a Rendition Stealth II 2200 3D Video Card(I need to Update my Signature) and I set mine to 800x600.Its the optimum setting for Windows 98 and its easier on my Old Monitor that flickers when I change to a Highier Resolution.

How should the Win9x Power Pack be distributed?
I know this may sound stupid for expert coders and programers and such...but why not merge it with Unofficial Service Pack(fututre Releases...if any).This way...people don't have to download many files tp update their Windows...Instead Merge it into a nice package and compress it in .rar format the .exe.

Last Patchday --> persuade M$ to extend support for Windows 9
Micrososft is stubborn.once they make these kind of decisions they can't flip-flop,not becasue they don't want to...becasue they will look stupid if they change thier mind.Thats why I'm switching to Windows 2k in a few days or weeks if my Download Bandwith holds up

Last Patchday --> persuade M$ to extend support for Windows 9
....Are you saying we're supposed reach deep into our pcoket book and give microsoft good,hard erned money so they can make 3rd rate software that crashes on first use?The Only reason I use Windows 98se is not becasue its good on my PC...Windows XP has problems...deep Deep issues that can only be adressed by downloading 200-300MB of fixes they "forgot to update".And you're blaming ppl like us for asking microsoft too much by telling them to make their products more stable?Well if so,here is a message to Microsoft and ppl like YOU!...If you really wana force people into Windows XP then I suggest you clean up your act(and OS)
