That is true, but when you install stuff to mac, you just drag n' drop the folder with the files to the hard disc and there, installed. Uninstalling -> just delete the folder. It so ****ing easy that it cant really go wrong. If i would buy a PS2 for games, there wouldnt be nothing else mac couldnt do, that windows can...

Windows ME, 98, 95 are quite poor operating systems they crash if you start to stress your computer out... I would upgrade to 2000.

That blue screen is more worse than the ****in alarm clock that wakes me up at 6 every morn.

I would love to get linux installed on my com as i only use it for the net and c++ n java but ive only got a 56k modem n i dont know ne1 with linux on cd.

Im not much on a hardware buzz(n i can't afford a new os) so does any1 know of a way i can free up some virtual memory.

A fair few of my buddies are running on 98 and they swear by it for gaming.It must not be that bad

windows me is the worst operating system (i should know im on it). ive had mine balls up half the time and the simple thing i do is to do a system restore to before it started to mess up the do the usual crap (defrag, scan disk, virus scan, etc...) then its fine (until the next time).

if i was you i would seriously upgrade to xp. i'd do so myself but its pointless for me cause im getting a new computer soon (hopefully)
