Computer executives at Microsoft say that Windows 98 goes down so much they are thinking of renaming it "MONICA."

Thats how much MSc executives know Really know lol
I used to run my 98 machines for months on end, gaming, game servers, workstations..often months between reboots, and that was for driver updates.
Stable as. Even the old 95 machines where ok.
ME well thats another story lol
Customers machines always had problems..why?
Going to porn/underground sites, no firewalls, virus scanners (if present) where months out of date, updates never run, spam/ rubbish from hotmail/msn.
And worst of all stupid tweak programs and addons.
And blamed MS. Shocked

MS does seem to have a theme for their O/S s with the name change...after all they have longhorn for their beta program and does XP stand for Ex President?

Sometimes what happens is things are lost due to ones native language, and different reflections on humour around the world.

Our country maybe named after a town in yours, as far as language etc goes thats where the similarites are lost lol
