I didn't miss out on 2K, nor on ME. 2K's teh b4rf. Dad used to have it, but now has ME. Big improvement over it, but I still like me XP. As for Vista... If I'd want XP with styling I can't work with, I'll just re?nstall BlackBox.

Ah, you mean the one that used to be called Blackcomb, the one after vista. They decided it needed a name that fit the vista theme (beginning with a V presumably being the theme, lol).

huh? 2k is vastly better than Me, for starters it doen't crash as often (in my experience Me is less stable than 98SE).

Yeah, 2k was based off the NT kernel, while ME was off of the 9x kernel, so 2k should crash less often in theory.

Not at all, 2K was very stable for me (you're using just a later version of it). Me was next to useless.

A company who realises that the new OS will be out of date by the time it hits retail? Tis the way of the computing world.
