A little history about Microsoft Operating Systems 

    Around 1993, Microsoft made a decision to establish two different markets. One market would be for those using their very expensive, premium, Operating System called " Windows NT "which required a lot of very expensive RAM.   Win NT started with versions NT 1.0 through NT 4.0 in August 96', to NT 5.0 ( Windows 2000 ).  NT was very stable compared to other operating systems as each program runs in its own separate memory allocation, allowing the operator to shut down a defective program without losing others. Not until this October 2000 did Apple finally give in, loosing face, and copy this NT, free BSD, X86 architecture with their latest Operating System. Yes, NT requires much more RAM memory.  NT 5.0 ( windows 2000 ) was released in December 1999 and is even acknowledged by most, to be as stable as Unix and Linux OS flavors. In October 2001, NT 6.0 (Windows XP  home and pro) was launched as the latest NT system. In 1994 I paid  $ 1200 for two 16 Mb RAM memory sticks so I could just barely run NT.    Today in 2001 I just bought a 512 Mb RAM stick for $82.

   The other market was for those using their half priced, purposely handicapped ( toy ), Operating System called " Windows "which would run on very little expensive RAM memory.     Starting with Windows 1.0 through Windows 3.11, then Windows 95, 98, and 98 second edition, to the current Windows ME.    To handicap them, RAM memory requirements, stability and networking security ability were greatly reduced, along with the substantial price reduction. Many times you will hear " Windows 2000 is for business and Windows ME is for home."  With RAM memory being so cheap now days and all the   program compatibility upgrades   along with   direct X 8  , this is simply a ploy  to save face for those without the  patience to study and learn how to install Windows 2000.  Fact is that Windows 2000 remains far ahead of its handicapped ME Twin in stability and many other features and is the best for any purpose.
