Pros: Easy to use, and the price is excellent Cons: umm none yet ( not even any bugs yet ! )
Now, i may not be the worlds smartest person when it comes to software, and developing software, but neither are the majority of the people around the world, or microsoft wouldn't pay it's programmers such big bucks! But what i can tell you is that Win...

Pros: Faster, More Stable, Better Features Cons: Some programs have problems with it
I've used WindowsNT4, WindowsCE, Windows3.1, Windows95, Windows98SE, And so far WindowsME is the best. There is a few extra features that I like, For example, I love the new "Thumbnail" option and I like the new image preview program, I think...

Pros: Easy to install Cons: Couldn't uninstall and it didn't work after I got it installed
I purchased the Windows ME Promotional Setup package and installed it on my Compaq Mod. 7478 a little over a week ago and have had nothing but trouble since. It took almost two hours to install the package which wasn't to bad. When I attempted to use it...

Pros: Great new programs, system restore Cons: You can get them for free off the 'Net
Microsoft Windows Millenium Edition is a great operating system. But if your computer already has Windows 98(SE) then I don't think it's necessary to upgrade. That is unless you have a very slow connection to the internet.
I speak of the...

Pros: larger install driver base Cons: POOR stability, pointless feature set
Recently I purchased a new desktop, which had Windows ME installed. Having been a fan of Win 95 and 98 SE for their ease of use (albeit quirky natures), I was looking forward to the possibility of improvements. Sadly ME has proved to be a very poor...

Pros: Well worth the money Cons: none
Windows Millenium Edition is a great operating system. It comes with some extra small features that Windows 98 and 95 dont have. The operating sytem does not take that much space up on your hard drive either. The cool part about it is it doesn't require...

Pros: play games, updated user interface Cons: slow, buggy, crashes, ugly user interface, expensive
Microsoft's latest installment in the personal versions of windows falls short of expectations. It is a half-hearted attempt at updating the desktop.
The report is that ME discards DOS, however, it still crashes frequently and has some...

Pros: some new interesting and use full features IE(restore and preview) Cons: while the new look makes your mouth water theres not all that much added
As we all know Microsoft has added another member to their family tree. Windows ME or Windows Millenium Edition as microsoft likes to call it what i first noticed about this release was that it came out prematurely and by this i mean there was not...

Pros: Doesn't delete .dll files Cons: Insecure, nothing new to offer really
I installed this Operating System thinking a lot of new things would become of it. The installation went well, it was quite simple just put the cd in and your good to go.
After it was installed there isn't much of a difference between 98se...

Pros: Good for beginners Cons: A lot of bugs, limited hardware support, a lot of functions have been removed
While it contains a lot of new features like the Office 2000 type of menu's (where only the links that are most used are shown), a lot of advanced features have been removed. Also to get in DOS you have to do some tricky things.
As you will...

Pros: Excellent maintenance and recovery Cons: Not really stable, and not yet compatible with some programs
In my last opinion I stated that I don't like Windows ME. But as I explored the program, I discovered one area in which it was surprizingly good: the maintenance program, especially the disk defragmenting program. While not as fast or user friendly as...

Pros: Great for Multimedia, Automatic Updates Cons: Too many bugs
I received my copy about a month before it went on sale(through Microsoft)so it might have been updated since then.
I will start with the good parts:
1) If you have used any Windows product before ME you should know that Help in any of...

Pros: Make home networking easier Cons: Some hardware and software is not compatible
There is no need to rush out for this O/S. The interface is almost identical to W98 and it is only slightly more stable. I have some software that just won't work and my video card is still acting weird. There are only limited device drivers and no...

Pros: Very nice box Cons: Fast boot time is not-so-fast, increased stability isn't.
The Positive Side of Windows ME
Well, it's a nice operating system and, having to service a lot of computers, it's not terribly unpleasant to work in. However, it's frighteningly unstable (to the point you want to ask "Did they even...

Pros: Loads Faster, Lots of nifty new features Cons: Networking has bugs, doesn't boot right lots of times
I got Microsoft Windows ME with the intention that it would improve my computer and make it run more efficiently. Boy was I wrong! Windows ME took the situation from bad to worse.
Upgrading from Windows 98 to Windows ME was a real pain....
