    What the hell are you talking about? WINDOWS ME IS THE MOST UNSTABLE OS!!! I read a magazine which states that Windows 98 is the OS everyone uses, but the mag is half a year old.

    I'm not sure about this list. It says a number of games that don't work on XP, but yet here I am, running XP, and able to play the ones that say I shouldn't be able to. Of course, this only works for the games that I do have, but oh well.

    Edit: I'll list the ones I got running that say I shouldn't. Yes. I have too much free time.

    Age Of Empires: The Conquerors (Microsoft)
    Beneath a Steel Gray Sky (Unknow)
    Betrayal at Krondor (Unknow)
    Black Moon Chronicles (Cryo Interactive)
    Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain (Unknow)
    Daggerfall (Unknow)
    (Just an interlude to say that I've never tried running Final Fantasy on my computer, because I have a PS for that. )
    Gabriel Knight 1 CD (Sierra)
    Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade (Unknow)
    King's Quest 7 (Sierra)
    Kings Quest 8 (Sierra)
    Phantasmagoria 2 (Sierra)
    Pirates Gold (Unknow)
    Pirates! Gold for Windows (Unknow)
    Populous (Bullfrog)
    Populous 2 (Unknow)
    Quest for Glory 4 (Unknow)
    Quest for Glory 4: Shadows of Darkness (Unknow)
    Riven CD (Unknow)
    Seven Cities of Gold (Unknow)
    Sim Theme Park (Bullfrog)
    The Elder Scrolls: Arena (Bethesda Softworks)
    The Longest Journey (Unknow)
    Thief (Unknow)
    Ultima 7 (Unknow)
    Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? (Unknow)

    Now it should be painfully obvious what kinds of games I play.

    things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia
    so, he does
    the russians are like "OMG WTF D00DZ, STOP TKING"
    and the germans are still like "omg ph34r n00bz"
    the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
    and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter
    the germans are like "wtf, h4x"
    -- WW2 for the l33t

    Good point... ME is just as bad... but I have seen some REALLY BAD 98se machines...

    I guess it&#39;s a toss up... 98 and ME = Both crap.

    The reasons everyone uses 98? Super compatible, and... no one knows any better. Also, they don&#39;t have the processing power to hang with XP... Unless you have a new(er) computer, you can&#39;t handle anything above 98. In the grand scheme of things that is...
