Solve : Whats up with windows ME?? |
Answer» <html><body><p>I was just wondering how come windows ME didnt get much attetion while it was out..... is something wrong with it. (other than it being very old now days)From what I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/heard-2695126" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HEARD">HEARD</a> about Me is that it's the most unstable version of Windows out there.<br/><br/>Also that it wasn't that much of a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/change-238106" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about CHANGE">CHANGE</a> compared to W98.<br/><br/>But all that is from what I heard. I never had ME installed on one of my systems.Windows ME was a <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/minor-548033" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about MINOR">MINOR</a> upgrade over 98se, and unfortunately had horrible stability issues for alot of people. (I myself however ran it just fine and never had any serious troubles, at least not anything more than what 98se gave me.)<br/><br/>Also, and I think this is the bigger issue, Windows 2000 came out months earlier. While 2000 was built on the very reliable NT kernel, Me was still using the somewhat problematic 9x kernel. Even still, 2000 was able to run a great number of programs designed for 9x without difficulty, and could do so in a more stable environment.<br/><br/>The final nail in the coffin, however, was that <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/xp-747558" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about XP">XP</a> was released just a year later, combining the stability of the NT kernel with even better compatability for the 9x programs. (Or so they <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/hoped-2714353" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about HOPED">HOPED</a>, there was compatability issues with XP just like there is now with Vista, nothing new there.) With the stable NT kernel mixed with the GUI that was such a breath of fresh air when compared to the stale and sterile pre-XP interfaces, why would anybody want to bother with Me?</p></body></html> | |
