Re: OT - RAM utilities -> XP sucks? -> ME is worse?
Yep, Win98 seems to be the 'sweet spot' for most Users. I have often seen people say on various 'support Boards' that you should not bother with anything after Win98 SE. I wonder what the real statistics are for the current installed base of Windows systems. Is Win 98 still holding a larger chunk of the systems than any of the newer Versions? Is XP going to convince people to upgrade with its combination of Win/NT stability and Win98 compatible 'consumer' features? Or will the 'subscription' features spook people away from it? I think we're reaching a crucial point in the history of the Microsoft Empire. If people are not willing to upgrade to XP there may be an opening for someone/something else. If not Linux then maybe the rumoured "Intel Version" of Apple's OS X.
