I respect Bill Gates a lot, he's a great businessman and he actually cares about the world - I'm honestly not sure if I would want to run a charity myself (I'd likely reinvest the money into new businesses).
On the topic of Windows: I've never had Windows crash since like 2004. ME, 2000, XP, Vista, 7 - all stable and reliable. I DID have a lot of third party apps that make the hodge podge soup on my hard drive crash, and that can't be avoided since not everyone works for Microsoft.
P.S. Windows 98 crashed sometimes, though and I needed to restore the registry once a year - don't know what that was about, but switching to ME got rid of the issues.
- hdctambien 15y agoUpvoting because this is the only nice thing I've ever heard anyone say about Windows ME. Also, I haven't had windows crash on me since Vista.
- jakeonthemove 15y agoYeah, I don't know why people hate on ME, I thought it was great compared to 98. I remember being able to run some of the newer software (including Office XP, I think) and yes, it worked fine for two years, I can't complain :-)...
- Jd 15y agoI still have dreams about BSOD. Sad to hear that it is gone.
- jiggy2011 15y ago"switching to ME got rid of the issues." That's the first time I've ever heard anyone say that.
