98SE not broke

[Guest Lil' Dave]

Just want to thank Gary, Pa Bear, Glee, and all the other folks that have

contributed here.

 

After b11_ left to the xp general group, its been pretty quiet. Not

complaining mind you. Last long thread I saw was about XP SP3, not 98/98SE.

 

Candidly, I seldom use 98SE, except to use DI2002 to copy the hidden ME

partition, and use NERO 5.5. Wandered off to XP as ZA no longer supports

98SE. Then, had many problems with ZA, so I now use the xp firewall

instead. Similar with NAV (I know, I know). NAV stopped supporting

98/98SE. The newer NAV versions are so abrasive to PC usage, I had to

switch to Trend Micro in XP.

 

Learned alot in Win 95 original, to 95B and 95C. Thanks Uncle Gus. 98 was

a short interim for me. I went to 98SE, downloaded and saved all the

updates both for system and hardware related to PCs I normally use. Never

looked back. On one PC I built for my daughter years ago, I patched the

Millenium boot screen to the 98SE bootup. She was so thrilled she had ME at

the time... I couldn't bear to tell her the truth.

Are you saying you are gone for good, now-- gone 100% to an

XP-irradiated machine that STILL wouldn't run ZA? I shall begin work on

your obituary immediately, then! I always thought well-enough of you

Lil' Dave-- it will be a real tear-jerker! Have your pinky toes turned

deep purple yet?
