It wasn't any better when it was supported. But it still don't surprise me.
--- Quote ---Clearly. Look at the icons and the Windows graphic in Internet Explorer.

I meant the one in South Park.

Windows 98 is STILL supported by Microsoft until 2006. They extended it. Google gets something like 33% of its pageviews from Windows 98 machines.

Urghhh... Really? That's terrible - and I always thought suicide was not a solution!
Kintaro:
Yeah, they will end its support along with ME next year.
Microsoft planned to discontinue its support for Windows 98 on January 16, 2004. However, due to the continued popularity of the operating system (27% of Google's pageviews were on Windows 98 systems during October-November, 2003 [1]), Microsoft decided to maintain support until June 30, 2006. Support for Windows Me will also end on that date. - Wikipedia.
However every time they discontinue support and updates for their older operating systems, impoverished users with older hardware fare a higher chance of switching to an alternative to Microsoft Software. I say that, however I still know plenty of people who run Windows 95.

Do you think this error could becaused by a shit installation?
We have a PC at work still running MS-DOS, it's a 486 I think, they should really consider FreeDOS but no one cares as it's only used for really old legacy programs.
