Why M.E.?

Why did they create such a crappy computer?

The Windows Millenium Edition (ME, hence pun) Is a computer made by Microsoft that was recalled, due to it well….sucking…

It was replaced with the 2000, which in my opinion, is more than worlds better then the Millenium Edition.

Why does the ME suck is a question those of you who have never fallen prey to one. It has very many crappy points….

For one, This computer is insanly vunrable to virus'. It doesn't matter what virus protection you may have, It's going to get virus' (I've had to reboot this computer about once a year since we've gotten it).

Every single time it's rebooted it has something different horribly wrong with it, once no aplications worked, another time It wouldn't run internet, the next I got internet to run, but it only worked for 5 minutes before it expeirienced an error, and asked me to report the error (everytime I did that it shut off.

This time around it has more than one major downfall.

For one, half the time I shut the computer down, it won't turn back on for around 5 miutes to an hour, also, every once and a while my keyboard and mouse will stop working for an extent of time (till I shut it off 2-3 times), and the last, it won't run ANY exe files.

I've had to deal with this piece of crap for years now, and I am once again rebooting it, beacuse I can't test out game maker games since EXE's don't work.

Seeya after the reboot-

If it can't run .exes how did you manage to run a browser to post this blog? (I get the impression you are using the above mentioned computer?)

Why ME? Because Microsoft needed a boost in sales, and they felt that releasing a half-built piece of crap early would gain them more money than releasing a better build later on.

That and, 'Millennium Edition' is a neat sounding name, and if they waited to release later, they couldn't use that name.

I had ME on my old comp, I never used it for internet or extreme gaming, but it's the only computer that FF7 PC works on.
