while everyone was infected with virus and worms choking the win2k and XP..... win98 was running slowly, safely and still online without any trouble.......

Yes hehe, Win98 is a good old lady. Completed tons of games from Quake to Medal of honor on Win98. I guess XP and Win2000 are more targetted by hackers because of their emphasis on networking and similar stuff.Originally posted by LittleTiger:while everyone was infected with virus and worms choking the win2k and XP..... win98 was running slowly, safely and still online without any trouble....... -
Initially when it was released cant use mah, need Microsoft online activation.Originally posted by F Bunta:n00b

don't you think there are ton of inconvenience around win98?
lack of usb support
lack of first class built in support for Chinese
lack of driver support
always blue screen of death -
Even with WinXP need to still install specific drivers from the hadrware manufacturer to get the full benefits. There is only so much Windows can do with the use of generic drivers.Originally posted by findingnewidea:don't you think there are ton of inconvenience around win98?

Windows 2000 isn't meant for home users. It is more for business use, especially Windows 2000 Server was the only choice before Windows Server 2003 came out.
Windows XP is for home users. It is getting common in office as an OS for individual workstation too now.
Windows 2000 is a successful product. Just it wasn't meant for you as a home business.
