I still don't know what ME really was. A dressed down NT? A poorly updated 98?

A desperate repackaging of Windows 98, when there was no really new product to sell. It incorporated the improvements from 98SE and added ermine mudflaps and a GT Racing Stripe.

In short, vaporware.

I do think it may have had a forerunner of the RESTORE function, and if I had all afternoon to wait for the fossil "Byte Me" laptop to boot, I would look for you..hahaha.

Yes,ME does have the system restore and it has saved me when a new update or software crashes the machine.

As a home user it has served well enough for FR,ebay,downloading reference books,etc.

By the way I also have an NT laptop I forgot the password for and still trying to remember so not to lose whatever is on it.

Have a ME laptop somewhere too.
And XP home and Pro,also some 95 and 98 for running a machine controller that doesn't need any complications.
