How do I crash WinMe

[Aaron Ni]

Faust, I'm not gone forever.  When I get a computer that I own completely then I'll install Linux (Or I'll get a Mac!)  do you get it?

But you should have this option when you purchase the system, without paying MS - Microsoft prevents that from happening. Therefore you buy a Dell and you're stuck paying for XP whether you want it or not. It's like movie theaters not allowing you to bring your own popcorn, since you have no choice, their popcorn don't have to be good.
Some companies like Gateway have tried to fight this policy.

Yes yes I know that too!  When the time comes I will research it all.  *Isnt a moderator for looks.*

Well I'm sure this has been posted here before, but just in case you are not aware of it (and you wish to read it):

especially - H. Microsoft's Pricing Behavior - which is basically what I was referring to above.

No it doesn't. Big packets don't crash anything.

Just boot it up.
