Yup. We had a 98 "home" PC that my mom, brother, and I used, then my dad had his PC for his graphics/web design work. He went to "upgrade" to ME, swore a bunch, then reverted to 98 until XP came out. I don't think I ever fiddled with ME, but I'm glad I didn't have to from all the horror stories. Granted I was maybe 12ish when all that happened, and I really only played games then (and finding certain images on certain websites once I discovered that was a thing), but I didn't get into computers, tinkering, and Linux until high school when I got my own computer.
