 - YukAll I can say is, the computer I had with Windows 95 on it is still running strong at my parents house, whilst this one I bought new with Windows ME on it constantly hangs up and crashes. Thank goodness all the new computers have XP on them now. I can't wait to get one. Rating:  - Waste of money and computer resourcesWindows ME is a 'fluffy' version of Windows 98, only it features a massive memory leak - meaning you NEED one of those RAM Boosting programs (aka memory managers) just to keep more then 2 applications going at a time. I ran Windows ME for about 3 months before becoming completely frustrated with it and moved to Windows 2000 Professional. This product appears to have been an attempt to create what Windows XP is today, only it failed misserably. This is NOT the operating system for power users or professionals, not that I would recomend it to anyone to begin with. If your looking for a 'fluffy' upgrade, skip this and go right to Windows XP Home Edition. If your a serious power user, then either go with Windows XP Pro, or just wait until "Longhorn" is released. Rating:  - Great productThis product is a good one. I bought it in order to keep up with the usb technology and it has worked great. It is almost the same as windows 98, but it supports this new usb technology. Mine has never frozen or had any of the problems everyone else is having. I think it is great, but i'm sure everyone else is not lying. It worked for me though and it might work for you. Rating: - Yes, it does freezeIt freezes if you actually make your computer work. If you don't ever try to multitask it won't freeze. Duh. Hey, if you only bought that $1000 dollar computer to play Minesweeper and check out spam ads for septic-tank cleaners and Viagra, feel free to use Windows ME. If you actually want to play real video games, play media files, surf the net, and chat (all at the same time), get Windows XP. ME stands for Many Errors--be warned! Rating: - It is sooooooo perfectYou probably all think "oh boy, Windows ME stinks to living death" well guess what... YOU'RE WRONG! There are bad rumors saying it always freezes and crashes, which is not true. The best thing to do is press crtl+alt+delete right when the desktop comes and end everything except for explorer, which is your desktop. Also keep it healthy by doing disk cleanup and defragmenter 1nce a week. I really like my Windows ME. At first it was confusing, but get used to it and you will understand. Also.. i was going to get XP edition then i found out about the virus. The virus does not target ME because of very bad rumors. Now for my words of wisdom. "Get ME and keep ME".
