Well, I also think WinME was pretty much a waste of time and offers no real computing experience or advantage. Also think it will be an orphan OS. Not many copies were actually sold over the counter and most out there were shipped as such, which is what I have. I have not seen a single advantage over 98 in the year I've had it.
Thought about upgrading to XP but too many complaints/problems  keep surfacing on it and decided to wait awhile longer.
Still a lot of non-available drivers for various devices. But I sure would like to see MS have some competition. Real competition.
