 EVIL WINDOWS ME! LOL! January 5, 2006
What ever you do, do not and I mean do not "INSTALL THIS PIECE OF CRAP WINDOWS ME". I had It on my computer and It gives you errors. These errors are from the OS. The OS was not setup properly, Microsoft just rushed through with this OS to get it out to the market. Who ever "UPGRADES TO XP" is stupid. Buy the full version of XP. For example "AN UNTRUSTED PERSON COULD UNINSTALL UPGRADE XP BECAUSE IT'S IN THE Add/Remove PROGRAMS" ME shouldn't even cost 55 bucks, It should be 99 CENTS for this garbage WinME. Even when I bought ME 6 years ago, I couldn't get on the INTERNET! Even when I set it up correctly and I was only 9 years at that time and now im 15! and I can build a computer from scratch! If you buy ME your a dumb person. Id rather buy Windows Media Center or perhaps Windows 2000, Windows 98 SE! But Im telling for the finnal time If you buy ME don't come crying to me because I know what this software can pull and It won't be somthing like "THIS OS ROCKS!!" and your gonna complain in 3 to 8 days saying "OH MY GOD I CAN'T WATCH VIDEO" and then your screwed. PLEASE GET SOMTHING XP BECAUSE I HAD TO HELP PEOPLE WITH THIS ISSUE AND I HOPE YOU PEOPLE WON'T COME CRYING TO ME

If you like frequent crashes, freezing and the inability to use certain programs such as System Restore, by all means, go with Windows ME. I bought my computer new with the ME program on it and within 3 months I was an expert at re-installing the ME program. Every time I would download clip art or anything from the internet, ME would begin going haywire. I would have to erase my download immediately or ME would continue to disentigrate until I'd have to totally erase my computer and re-install the ME program, as well as all my hardware software... and after a while, ME did not want to accept any of my printer, scanner, camera or drivers hardware. It would just keep telling me it couldn't find it. Can't wait to get rid of it!!!

The result of an incestuous union between Windows 98 and Windows 2000, there was always something about this inbred child of an operating system that just "wasn't right." As the Millennium is fast receding into a foggy distant memory, so too, thankfully, are instances of this ill-conceived operating system on the desktops and laptops of the world.
It is not just the familiar freezing and random crashing of programs, the ubiquitous blue screens of love, or even the maddeningly mismanaged memory resources that causes the most anguish to the Windows ME end-user. It is, ultimately, the overwhelming sense of betrayal felt by those loyal Microsoft customers, tired of waiting for Windows 2000 to appear when this petard was hoisted by the mega-company, that stings the most.
If you happen to purchase a used pc containing Windows Millennium on it, please be kind to your tech support guy and let him reimage your harddrive with Windows XP, rather than subject him to the sleepless nights and loss of hair symptomatic of that pitiable breed of IT professional: the Windows ME support technician. He will love you for it.

 Windows Me, An Unqualified Success! July 22, 2005
0 out of 3 found this review helpful
Every day I thank Microsoft for Windows Me - usually I lay abed in my Victorian mansion, thinking about what an update this thing was on XP and 98. With those two operating systems you had to go in there and sort of tinker around until you had everything perfect, on the time line. But after the time line quake, when the trembling time line swung on its ferocious head and we started living backwards, Windows Me proved to be the exceptional friend of technology users everywhere. A cinch to load on, since all you do is plunk in the CDs and push the blinking yellow tiger that then says, "GO!" in a real cute, funny voice.
It's great, especially for portable users, users who places to go, to be, and so on. There's this great sense of like, -- well you're just sitting there in a busy airport and you plug in your laptop and Windows Me allows you to just get out there and get it done!
In my opinion, Me is the WAY to go, enhancing the Windows experience in a flattering and modular way.
Why Windows Me? July 11, 2005

Windows Me has things that XP has but Windows Me works well with a workhorse Gateway G6-200. With that said I'll tell you why Windows Me... You need this Windows OS to use all the software including Microsoft Money 2003 Deluxe and Office 2000.
I find the Active Desktop on the Taskbar to be useful to go to a program quickly once you are in a opend program and or to check a drive. You can have a quick way to get to the Desktop on the Taskbar. I have had things not work right with Windows 95 so, I went with Windows Me and I could now Multi Task better than Tiger. I can put things in to the programs menu easy. I can have a quick list for Control Panel, insted of opening Control Panel I just hilight it and it puts everything in it to the right, to click on it. installing programs is easy and getting the screen saver active is easy as right click and go down to the bottom. I know you may like XP but Windows Me works just as well as XP. for all your needs Windows Me works right everytime when you turn on your computer. I gave this five stars because it is the Best OS, Better than Tiger, Better than XP, Better all around, Go with Windows Me and hang on to Your computer longer and then when it dies get a computer with XP or the next OS by Microsoft.
