That is quite the treat indeed, more errors to deal with, little to no support from the help functions they program into it, more succeptable to viruses and spyware and a whopping price to top it all off Windows 98 was made before corperations started pulling shady moves like what steam is doing right now, therefore it is the most reliable system they got. Regardless of any legal "rights" they have to pull the support of windows 98, morally, we small majority of 98 users deserve respect to play the games we purchased from this company.

Something like play Steam Games on Windows 9x on your own risk...:) I called Steam plenty names after i put an old pc runing and can't play on it...:/ But I still love Steam, play and use it on Windows XP (new PC) but, i could be playing right now on this old pc that is at my worksatition. It's a shame :x Btw i think there is someone in this world that can make steam run on windows Me again, but maybe that person, with that kind of knowleged doesn't know that some cs lovers can't play cs on old OS that worked fine in the past.

With my "rig" (Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz 2GB ram) and perhaps anyones which os would run faster? XP or Vista? For the most performance from my hardware I would use the older and more well supported OS. Oh and take a look at the price tag on Vista. Lets see…
