Good point. Keep in mind that support has already stopped for Win95, a program that came out over 7 years ago. By 12/31/2003 Win98 will be nearly 5 years old. Relatively speaking there are few ME installations. I'm no fan of M$ but I'm glad they are discontinuing support for these older OS's and are concentrating on their 21st century software. Keeping their resources spread out amongst more than a half dozen operating systems doesn't do us much good in the long run.
