Okay.. This is a little OT I guess, but could anybody enlighten me as to the main differences between Win98 and Win98SE?

I know SE has ICS, but what else? Surely that's not all....?

Yeah, I know that... :-) Use Win2K all the time :D

Win2K on the other hand was supposed to be the more 'gamers' OS, microsoft said when they were releaseing SP1 (or was it SP2?)!

134071 2003-04-08 03:18:00 98SE is 98 with the bugfixes ;) -=JM=- (16)
134072 2003-04-08 03:21:00 98SE plus Xp on another PC must say I like 98 better as it requires less space and isnt riddled with stuff I dont use much , Xp works fine on a newish PC but hogs a lot of resources does multi task better though and has better memory management kiwibeat (304)
134073 2003-04-08 03:37:00 I run XP Pro with SP1 on my AMD home computer dualbooting with Mandrake 9. Works great and I haven't had any real troubles with it at all.

However it does crash every so often :P But why do I find that weird when I find I can make Linux crash as well without any effort.

I also run Win2000pro at Tec and find it to be a stupid operating system. Apart from its incredibly poor security it looks bad and is ughhh!....uck

134075 2003-04-08 07:00:00 I bought a new laptop before Xmas with XP, I found it different to Me and W98 and I'm just coming to terms with XP.

Yes I like XP and will probably move the Me rig over to XP too
