Windows 2000 was the XP of it's day, and Windows ME was the Vista of it's day. Microsoft took the stability of Windows 2000 and put the pretty interface of Windows ME to create Windows XP.
For anyone wondering... Windows ME was a an OS that looked really nice - but was absolute shit in terms of usability.
Huh, that's pretty interesting (my knowledge of OS's before XP is null - pretty sure the first one I remember in our house was either XP or 2000, and I was just a toddler at the time).
It's a shame that Microsoft is kinda just pumping them out now, and throwing stuff out of the window in order to gather more information on people.
Sure, information is power today, but what a way to make people hate you.
