If my feeble memory hasn't completely failed me then the new O/S has been in Beta testing for about two months now. IMHO it WILL be out next year. Dang thing better be solid - Windows 2000 sure wasn't.

I agree with you about Windows ME. What the #%$@ was that all about?

Not willing to buy any unless it breaks below $50. I think it will do that intra day tomorrow or Monday. Volume will be the most important indicator. Will the institutions bail? If so then all bets are off.

As for me, I still use word 7.0 and only recently upgraded to version 6 of Visual C (Professional edition). Let other people work out the bugs in the bleeding edge software.

Big Bull: OT

You say <<Windows ME? What the hell was that? I'm still trying to get Windows '98 to keep from crashing>>.

I switched 3 PC's to Windows ME about two months ago and have had no O/S problems since ... yes ... I have had problems, but not O/S ones. Win ME is much more stable. If you install it go to the MSFT site and add the security patches, etc., as you probably already do for yourWin 98. Win 98 never worked well for me.
