Don't get me wrong either, I am not saying you did it voluntarily. Your are just carried on by your enthusiasm and this is entirely to your credit.

Leave all this as is but, yes, open a new thread for it. I think it is the best thing to do.

MDGx, I don't know if anyone else noticed this in their browser, but using Fullscreen at 1024x768 res in Firefox1.5x, I had to do alot of side scrolling to read the first part of text, this might be a bit of a putoff for some people.

PS: We need one of the artist in the crowd to come up with a good Logo :)

We all want to here I guess. Well Windows ME in my case as that's what I am using.

And don't feel I am saying to you are not welcome here or something because that's not the case at all.

dont worry, it didnt come of that way at all. i use windows ME to on one box, well laptop, and it runs great on it. windows me should be kept alive as well, even though a lot of people say its crap, its not. it depends what you run it on. same with 98.

i was thinkimg of changing the name from ultimate, to something like "windows 98 still alive edition". would that be an idea? :unsure:

Any ideas how to improve the "spread-the-word" message?
http://www.mdgx.com/spx/

A thread where all new Intel "Conroe"/AMD AM2 boards with Windows 98SE drivers are listed!

Thanks, Roman

Count me in on some french boards as soon as I have some time.


Also, I think kernel updates and maybe visual changes should be more visible. I mean this weird project makes you curious so you read the rest of the links (which are also really nice, I'm not saying they're not)

I think big fans of Windows 9x should team up and make serive packs and tweak tools For the OS's kind of like
an open source project.Make a software and add a plugin cabability and send into the internet.Anyone who gives a heck should create little addons to make it bigger and better.Everyone is so focused into donation.
Instead of one Group creating SP's for WIn9x everyone who wants to could,thus cutting down costst to a possible
$0!!!!...Its Just an Idea and might not be a good one

I would be more than happy to support Windows 98 SE,you see my PC is good but my Video Card is only good for 800x600 Resolution so Windows XP is out.But I like Windows 98 Se,its fast and clean.I will do what ever I can to help Windows 9x Systems live on to the next 10 years tops.As long as there are some kind of patches and fixes,windows 98 is very powerfull :thumbup

well, i think that 98SE is going to keep living for a long time. i give it maybe 5 more years before the people still running it now start to consider a new computer, and maybe 10 years before we can lay 98 to rest. its a good operating system, just in 10 years time its going to be fairly old the internet might not even be the same by then. who knows :}

we'll wait till then, till then lets keep 98 alive ;)
