One of my best friends runs XP and says it's the best thing since DOS 3.0. My wife runs ME and it is a piece of shit. I can't begin to tell you how many problems we have had with this OS, from our home LAN to keeping M$ products from preempting other programs (e.g., Money vs. Quicken) and fax services, and the list goes on and on. ME is the most vile OS I have ever seen. It is Osama Ben Ladin in cyberspace. We can't even reboot the damn thing without unplugging it from the wall socket!
