they upgrade so they can run newer software
If that was the case, people would move on from older OS'es only when the support for them starts to disappear, and it's just not the case (just like they've started replacing XP now, despite it supporting all the new stuff still). People in general actually love the new features it brings (tons of them -- even for the average end-user e.g. cleartype or sleep that works), the eye candy, the stability, the newer faster more reliable hardware, the new things they can do with their computers (like watching HD content), there's about a billion different reasons for IT departments too (better GPO, better deployment stuff, etc). Yep, people are moving away from older OS'es because they found something genuinely better.
if they were better then they would be beable to run on older hard ware and they would be faster then their predecessor so they are not betterYes, again because running on a grossly outdated POS computer with specs worse than those found in dumpsters is the only thing that matters. You should "upgrade" to MS-DOS 1.0 then.
Since it's your only criteria, the only versions of any OS you're ever going to like are those older than what you're using now. You're certainly never going to upgrade to anything else.
"upgrade to ms dos 1.0"
dont be a smart a**
just becasue i got a old computer dosent mean you gotta be a little dip s*** to me
i got a vista laptop
so dont tell me am never going to upgrade
but i seen how the eye candy and slow downs and all the other crap of xp and vista can get really annoying
and dont say its a s*** computer
2 gb of ram
1.5 centrino dual core

the hard ware was 256mb or 386mb of sd ram pc-133 i think
cpu was 500mhz
yer not powerful but above the system specs and their for should run just but that will never happan
and why have xp when you can have 98 which is much faster and stable
you dont seem to understan some people cant afford the ram and the hard drive space and then the posting fees
and some people cant buy things because their dad wont let them lol
and some people just cant be borthered with it
also people that upgrade to win xp only do it so they can run their newer software and hard ware drivers and the eye candy
if win 9x could do that then their still be a heap of people still running 9x

Also marketshare-meassures has nothing whatsoever to do with the quality of the OS
I disagree. It clearly shows that most people and businesses are dumping older OSes they clearly don't want of as they found something better to replace it. People are moving on for a reason.
lol better i dont think so
they upgrade so they can run newer software not becasue their better
if they were better then they would be beable to run on older hard ware and they would be faster then their predecessor
so they are not better

ok one more thing
i tryed installing it with kenelex with windows 98se compatibitly mode on
its installs and every thing and then you restart and it just uses the old drivers
and all the apps install but have probloms like :error when analizying file creative mixer will close now and stuff like that
at first i made the sound card work by telling windows to install drivers from the cds folder and it install by it self
but i want the apps to work
i tryed deleting the files windows installed but when i tell it to remove in device manager it comes back next reboot and this may be why the drivers and apps wont install like they should and wont install right in kenalex so how can i delete the drivers and make sure they dont come back
in creative labs diagnostics says it dectecs hard ware but says all drivers not installed

hey guys
whats the best dual boot porgram for dual booting windows me and ubuntu ?
i want one of those ones that goes inside the OS not one of those ones that go into the MBR and when you format they will stay their
i want one that dosent mess around to much with my computer and one so i can restore ghost images any time i feel like it or need to
and i can reformat a drive and expect it to not boot up with the dual boot program

ME is a modern Multimedia general purpose OS for a networked multimedia Home or a personal Laptop.
Windows ME was definitely marketed and built for consumers/home users, not for business operations. Business & corporate users have steered clear of ME.
smartie77, I also found out that WinME has an improved version of the Spider Solitaire game that included options of choosing difficulty settings, which was not found in the Plus!98 edition of Spider Solitaire. My HP Pavilion 7840 desktop PC came pre-installed with ME back in early 2001.
btw, I may have plans to make an updated version of the unofficial ME SP this summer, if and only if the_guy (original creator of the ME SP) has no longer interest in making a new one. has anyone heard from the_guy lately?
i dont think so
hes probloy doing work or school or some thing
