re:Microsoft Windows '98: Extremely Worthless

My position is easy to defend. I am trying to get some discussion going about Windows '98.

OK, fair enough. I've used it, and I like it. I think it's worth $109 to me. I can discuss features and why I like it if you'd be interested.

I fear it is going to screw up my Netscape Communicator.

It won't. I'm running Communicator on my machine with no problems. If you are crashing a lot, you may want to stop running Communicator.

I would be happy to have you or anybody else persuade me to use the product

I have no interest in persuading anyone to use Win98. If Linux and the software available for it fills your needs, then that's great. If OS2 fits the bill, fantastic.

I think if people are expecting the same level of change from 95 to 98 as they saw from 3.1 to 95, they are in for a big dissapointment. If they are looking for some new useability features and performance enhancements, they will be pleased. I am.
