Haha. Windows ME is so bad that I had to reboot my computer every time I changed a TXT file for a game mod (ODF files in Armada/Armada II) or else the comp would lock/freeze/blue screen. WinXP Pro SP2 here.

My WinMe system was horrible, it was less stable than my win3.1 and win95 systems.

For me, I go old school with windows 2000 pro - I have never had a problem, stable as a rock and I like not having all the crap that xp has on it

I still use it but only in a virtual session. Reason: Because some of the kids' games simply work in ME that are useless (including with compatability mode) in XP. Even the older Myst games work better in ME-no reboots or crashes.
