As to the post speaking to Win2K and Office 97, why replace something that does what you need it to do.

Now….don’t take this personal or feel insulted. But if you are running 9x you need to spend a few bucks and buy XP.
I'm sorry, but you've got mixed messages there.
As you mentioned in the middle bit, if you don't pimp your PC to all the viruses worms and trojans on the internet, it will work quite nicely. And in that case, win9x is perfectly fine too.

Customer: ...Blah Blah Blah... Internet won't work!
Tech: I don't see your modem in my list, so try restarting it. Unplug the modem, wait 30 seconds and then plug it back in.
Customer: ...I don't think that's safe...
Tech: ... Um, ... why would you say that?
Customer: Well, the basement is flooded and the plug is under water.
