# It's more like
my week's work, rebuilding the fucker... 6 months getting it how I like it!

I miss my old 98SE system, that ran for weeks without reboots - 48 days straight uptime was the longest I recorded...

# Amazing!
How do you make an unstable "OS" like 98 do that?

Don't install Office.

# the who?
I don'd have any wp software, it's a home entertainment system - so why install something I can't even afford? :)

# OpenOffice is free, Open Source software.
The Business Software Alliance recently threatened legal action against a German (I think) university for distributing it.

# It didn't go

# 98SE? 48 days?
I used to get 3 hours. I wouldn't even let 2K run for 48 days.
Wondering why using a M$ OS is fucked up? Read this...
