On a percentage of installs on a percentage of hardware profiles, it will act like the best operating system every made. However, when doing the math, a percentage of a percentage isn't much. I figure the quality installs of ME is about 0.00001% Stephen
I guess I was lucky and within that percentage. But here's some of the issues i have with WinXP: I tend to "fix" computer for friends and family, and with Windows XP i have seen many errors, when after tickering and Googling, the best solution seems to be to just reinstall. I was able to _never_ reinstall my Windows ME, and still have it working well. Also, with ME, i could simply copy drivers and .inf files to where they need to be and have thigns work. That simply is not possible with WInXP. -- To be updated... -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
