What OS are you running?

I'm running Windows 98SE. It's pretty sad, really. The computer started out with Windows ME, and when that eventually crapped out, I had XP for 30 days until it stopped working. I couldn't afford to buy anything, so I just had my aunt install Windows 98 on it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

About WinXP, if your copy was legit, you should have activated it. If it wasn't, you should just pick up the Corporate Edition, which is on almost any site that has Windows torrents.

I couldn't activate it because it had already been activated on another computer. It just wouldn't let me do it, because that's not allowed, apparently. Back then, I don't think I knew that BitTorrent even existed, so that wasn't an option.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The gripes I have likely stem from my other specifications, and have little to do with the OS. But I really don't know. 128 MB RAM, 800 MHz processor. And my pitiful 19 GB hard drive. Not exactly good.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
