Do you want to get away from windowsme and windows in general

I assume that many use ME for simple browsing email and such and would
like to upgrade but don't really care to spend money for upgrading or
have an older computer or laptop and feel the possibly of slow
performance after upgrading would not be worth paying for an upgrade
to XP.

Well I used ME and XP for that matter for way longer than I wanted or
should have and thought this is kind of ridiculous. Simple software
installs make ME break, the drivers are no longer updated, there are
no new updates, the system will not be updated, it's not supported,
people don't make much new software or software updates for it.

It always manages to get slower over time for no defined reason, it
needs to be defragmented often where the performance 'might' get
slightly get better after using it.

You need software for security, and viruses get passed around pretty
easily, and it has a security flaw(s) that cannot be fixed.

Anyway I offer three operating systems.

The Windows 2000 still has supported updating from Microsoft as ME
does not. I works far better than ME and I generally like it better
than XP

This is not your property so if your religion your conscience or you
mother said to never steal this one may not be for you.

Anyway

First offered is windows 2000 professional, it works far better than
windows ME

Download the torrent at: http://tinyurl.com/2k3hya

This is a torrent, download the file and double click it. You need A
torrent program.
I recommend installing utorrent. Choose the 2000 operating system
option.

Then offered is Linux. This distribution is very easy to use. If you
don't have much space and an older computer I recommend this, it's
called PcLinux MiniMe. But it's also great for more current computers.
Download it here.

Note in Linux you can download and easily install programs, like
firefox from repositories.

In PcLinux it's called the synaptic package manager that you do this
with. Note that MiniMe
is only supported by one repository. So replace the site setting in
'repositories and check
the repository site and uncheck the others.

URI: http://linuxstation.net/pub/pclinuxos/apt/
Distribution: pclinuxos/2004
Sections: os texstar updates nonfree 93

Then offered is another linux from the same family, it's called
PCLinuxOS 2007, it's easy to use and comes with a lot of extra stuff
than does MiniMe.
Home page: http://www.pclinuxos.com/

OK when you download these linux files it will be in the form of an
ISO file. ISOs are burned to CD and can be booted. As in You can
reboot your computer with the burned cd in the cd drive and
actually use the system, browse the web from the cd, email ect.

Note: with these you may need to go into your bios while the computer
is booting and change the booting order or your hardware. Selecting
the CD or DVD drive to boot first.

If you somehow don't like it it it didn't recognize some hardware you
will still have your winme installed, if you want to install it it's
pretty easy.

Make a root partition '/' make a 'swap' (equal to on up to twice the
amount of ram you have) then
make a 'home' folder.

For cd burning these ISOs I recomend Deep Burner.

I am merely giving advice that people have different (overly simple)
options in which operating systems they can choose from, that some
didn't even know existed.

Wouldn't even cost them a penny to do and use

It requires a lot of cheek to offer pirated Microsoft software
in a Microsoft-sponsored newsgroup.

"I am merely giving advice..."
It that what you call suggesting people use stolen software?

"Wouldn't even cost them a penny to do and use"
Typical with a lot of stolen goods.

Perhaps you are unwilling to pay for the goods and services you use
but most are honest and choose to avoid your dishonest ways.

Calling your post "Pure spam" is very conservative considering you
encourage dishonest activity.

You sure were conservative. I have some much better
terms to toss around, but since they turned all the
grass around me brown and the siding on my garage
melted, I'll refrain from puttting them into print. So
I'll just say that IMO most people are honest and
choose not to become criminals by joining other
criminals by using their hate-inspired hatreds in the
futile attempt to harm those whom they cannot. In
other words, I choose not to become a criminal and
wouldn't visit that site if my ARS depended on it.

I'd say 'see ya later' to the OP but; it's headed in
the wrong direction.

Because W2K was the last really stable OS
they've produced, and a bunch of corporate machines
still run it.

ME was never anything but a POS, and never got
any market penetration.
