Dell and Windows Mellinum

-200 points posted to Operating Systems, Sales Strategies, Desktops and Laptops by windowsgenius 11/13/07

You know what sucks, dell only lets you get laptops and desktops with windows xp and vista. i mean come on! We as the consumer should be able to get our computers with windows 98 and ME if we want. Who cares if it is out dated or just plain dumb. We should get what we want without having to pay somewhere else for windows 98. Remember those old games like flight simular 95 and space simulator? they are to slow on our modern computers. but what if we want to play them? huh? think about it. alright?

11/13/07		 Dear Dell, I just purchased one of your new XPS systems with Windows 98 loaded. I got blue screens of death immediately. Everything was incompatible. As soon as I connected it to the internet, my system was bombarded with viruses. None of the software included works with it and get this...Microsoft support for it is pretty non-existant.

Oh wait, that sounds a lot like new version of Windows too. Guess I can't win either way. Please disregard! =)
