Windows Millennium Edition
Windows Me
Windows ME is a Microsoft Operating System, that was released Sept. 14, 2000.
As with all Windows software, it was launched to be the next updated version compared to the last. Windows ME offered now Moviemaker and Media Player 7, plus an advance DVD player. Also introduced were Plug and play and a TCP/IP networking stack.
However, with all these great things for the Time, came a lot of problems. Windows Me was reported to be one of the most criticized OS ever released. One funny negative report was when PC world called ME the Mistake Edition. Of the long list of problems with the software always freezing and crashing was an error with the System restore tool. Of course, that was if you could even get the OS to upgrade or install properly on your Computer.
Windows ME was the replacement and upgrade for Windows 98, which I used as a kid. In fact, I had Windows 98 SE. I lucked out and missed all the fun with Windows ME OS experience and jump right into Windows XP. Therefore, now with at least three more OS that Microsoft has released over the past decade, I am surprised to hear that some people may still use this software. I cannot believe it since ME was running on computer’s that only needed 150 MHz worth of processor speed and only 32Mb of ram. Hell I think you need more than that check your email over the internet now a days. If I ran across someone still running such an old piece of software I would suggest they pick up a Cheap used computer that I can almost bet would run 10x times faster and with less trouble.
