    XP Pro, 2k Pro but used to run ME which was awesome except for how freakishly slow it was.

    I seem to have the opposite with ME, I always found it was fine, and now a mate of mine is going BACK from XP Pro to ME because its MORE STABLE, that and it boots in like 3 seconds.

    Ive only ever used Win ME once, and by that I mean for 5 minutes to install something for a client.

    I 'umbly write to you from an (original) win98 machine.

    I'm currently making an "embeded type" o/s for a dedicated standalone DAW using 98SE core (with major file/reg stripping) a 95 explorer and certain ME file upgrades. I'm doing this via 98lite Preview and a slew of other freeware progs.

    BTW why no ME in the poll?

    Will it be a lightweight OS?

    WinME needs to be added to the Poll as most my friends still use WinME.

    It's already below 40MB and I think I can trim about 6MB more. One impressive thing is how fast it is on the Explorer and boot up but I need more information to strip it.

    The main thread on my project is here:

    That's cool. I have heard of a way to fit Windows 3.11 on a floppy.

    Sheesh a lot of XP users nowadays...
    I run dual boot 98/2K Pro but I haven't touched 98 in a while so I might do a format and get rid of it.

    It spounds intriguing but I have to draw the line at a pure 16bit o/s I need my 32 bit. Here's something in the same area (floppy disk o/s):

    A 32 bit GPL o/s

    Tweaked!
    Can you please put ME in the poll? I really am interested in the stats and feedback on it.

    Kinda late now. All the regulars have posted, and theres probably ME users under 'other'.
