>I strongly urge people to buy Windows ME over XP. It's cheaper, more efficient, more
>stable, and more user friendly, espesially if you've used 9X before. Unless you happen to be a Dos/command line user. Several of the command line utilities (such as sys) are crippled, and you can't use a normal AUTOEXEC.BAT/CONFIG.SYS file to automaticly load Dos based drivers. There is no good technical reason for this, this was done in an attemt by M$ to "ween" users off of Dos. If you want to go with a 9x-based version of Windows, Windows 98SE seems to be the best choice based on what I've read.
