As for Windows Me, the idea was to redesign the 9x line to be more
like 2000, for example it included the new TCP/IP in 2000 (and in 95,
98, 98 SE and NT 4, it had been abysmal, so that was one thing in Me's
favor). The problem was that for many if not most computers, Me was
far less stable than 98 SE. There were exceptions to that, but it was
released with a lot of flaws.

I bought a desktop computer at the time that came with Windows Me - I
did not find it specially faulty. Later I upgraded it to Linux and
double booted.


Yeah, a friend of mine bought a computer that came with WinMe, and for
him it was just fine. But others had serious problems with it. Kind
of strange, and yet we're seeing similar issues with Win10 today - an
update works for some people and royally screws up with others.
