I have used it without problems but it doesn't have that good driver support for devices.

Windows ME Stability is an oxymoron. I would rather that anyone using ME would have rather stayed with 98SE or gone to 2000.

whoa, why is this tread here?

IMO Windows ME simply gets bashed way too much due to its stupid marketing image.

The shell memory leaked a lot but overall it was less application crash happy than 98SE.

For the few months I did use it I quite liked it.

Windows 2000 is still the least bloated OS from Microsoft though, pity my box is a dual Opteron which is much better off with a windows x64 os.
