I have been using Windows 98SE on my stand alone Pentium Pro 200 since 1997 for use on the net and it has been nothing but a pleasure. Now that I got a usb 2.0 pci card (that didn't have drivers that require mmx, ) my trusty Pentium Pro and Windows 98 SE look unstoppable for a few more years at least. I would also like to mention I have never picked up a virus or worm with Windows 98SE, even when operating without a firewall. With a firewall less Windows 2000, I was attacked within minutes of going online! Windows 98 SE forever!
