My opinion, for what is worth. Don't spend money on an out of date (soon to be) OS. Go ahead and buy XP pro. Or, at least XP home, since your not networked to a Domain currently. You will be much better off. Now I know that money will be an issue and you can only do what you can do, but if at all possible I would push for it. Especially if your only talking a few clients vs. 400 + for example.

Subject: [IMail Forum] OT: Windows ME opinions
My boss is considering upgrading some of the employees workstations to
Windows ME and I was wondering if anyone had any opinions about the product
that they would like to share.
The computers are Compaq Deskpros (or similar Compaqs), 64 MB RAM, Pent III,
2GB HD, 56K Modem, MS Office Standard Edition. Basic stuff. Some have been
upgraded to 128 MB and/or 6 GB HD, but only as service depended on it. They
will be upgrading from W95.
The computers are not networked within the offices, they connect to our
corporate office via dial-up but will need to have stronger connections in
the very near future. He is looking at either cable modems, DSL or
Satellite, depending on what is available in each area. Our terminals are
in very remote locations across the US.
Any thoughts on the upgrade process, product reliability, security issues,
etc. would be appreciated. Feel free to contact me off-list as this is very
OT!
Thank you,
Amy Cozine
