or is someone just yankin' my chain?

what's the feeling about this?

Windows ME (Millenium Edition) is just another continuation of the Windows 9x line. Overall, it is NOT better than Windows 2000, which is based on Windows NT. However, in terms of home users, Windows ME would probably be better in that it is easier to use and supports games more easily.

I currently have both ME and 2000 but I'd go with Windows 2000 personally if I had to choose... it is stable as a rock (I haven't had it crash once... ME still crashes, though not as often as 98) and does support most recent games anyway.

Win2k is better in term of stability, but win ME is better in term of compatibility. Win ME stil support DOS

Win ME has better support for digital cameras and camcorders than Win2k. Win Me correctly detects my camcorder as a Sony DV camcorder, Win2000 does not.
