Rating: Summary: Looks Promising! Review: Windows Me looks very good and much easier to use than the previously released Windows 2000. This package looks to be more user friendly and much less complicated to use. Plus the price is very nice and affordable which is an added plus. As long as Windows Me doesn't have as many bugs as Windows 98 (NUMEROUS crashes and shut down problems), Windows Me will be a GREAT product! Also, I've actually tried the Beta version at a friends house and I loved it! i highly reccommend!
Rating: Summary: Windows 98 with a few more bugs Review: Windows ME is not capable of ever being compared to Windows 2000, not even Windows 98. It is a good upgrade for those of you running Windows 3.0, but if you have Windows for Workgroups v3.11 or above, with the exception of 98 second edition - stick with it... ME is 98 with some bugs taken out, more added into it.
Most software does not work with it, if you have an older computer, get NT or 2k, or switch to Linux, you will save yourself a ton of hassle... or just upgrade your PC and use XP.
Rating: Summary: A Total Disaster!!!!!!!!!!! Review: Ok so in November of 2000 I got my first computer not knowing anything much about computers back then I got a Gateway 900mhz with an Amd Atholon processer and guess what it came with Windows Me. The sales person was boasting all of this bull**** about how much better it was than windows 98 and yes I bought his bull**** story and got the computer for 1200 bucks. Ever since then I have always had probelms with it it would freeze up a lot and I would always have to use the control alt delete feature to get it working again and sometimes I would have to shut down the computer manually to get it to work right. One day my printer stopped working and I was on the phone for like an hour with the tech support and couldn't get it to work. Since then I haven't had a printer. And then about a couple of weeks ago I bought an HP psc 2355 printer and it printed and it copied but I couldn't get it to scan!!!!!! And I couldn't get any of the printing software to work!!!!!!!!!!!. I was so frustrated because when I called hp and talked to their tech support I was on the phone for f***ing two hours and still couldn't get it to work even the guy from hp said the operating system sucks. So then I took it back to Wal-mart where I bought it from and got my money back. And then I went to best buy and got me an epson 4600 all in one and the sales guy from epson told me that it would work with my system and the sales guy from best buy told me it would work. And when I got home and tried the printer it would copy but it wouldn't print or scan and if I turned my computer on with my printer on it wouldn't boot up to the desktop I kept getting all of these error messages. I couldn't call tech support because it wasn't toll free so I tried reinstalling the stystem and reinstalling the software but it was doing the same thing and even worse to where the computer wouldn't boot up at all the computer wouldn't shut down at all with out turning off the surge protecter so as frustrated as I was I went back down to best buy and got a refund for my printer and talked to somebody from the geek squad and they asked them to diagnose my system for probelems. The guy said well....it would cost sixty bucks but he said honestly it would be a waste of time he told me that I should put that sixty bucks toward an upgrade to windows xp so I took his advice and I did, but I had to pay one hundred bucks for the software and sixty for the installation but it was worth it my computer is running better than ever before, even though I haven't bought another printer yet, the tech guy said it would work for sure. So in conclusion if you don't want to go through what I went through don't get windows me get XP. Me is fore more errors.
Rating: Summary: Great product Review: You probably all think "oh boy, Windows ME stinks to living death" well guess what... YOU'RE WRONG! There are bad rumors saying it always freezes and crashes, which is not true. The best thing to do is press crtl+alt+delete right when the desktop comes and end everything except for explorer, which is your desktop. Also keep it healthy by doing disk cleanup and defragmenter 1nce a week. I really like my Windows ME. At first it was confusing, but get used to it and you will understand. Also.. i was going to get XP edition then i found out about the virus. The virus does not target ME because of very bad rumors. Now for my words of wisdom. "Get ME and keep ME".
