I haven't actually got it, but keep in mind that it is basically IE5.5 and
WMP7 (a bloated pig if ever there was one), some new icons, and a couple of
system utilities (which mean that you only have to reinstall the thing half
as often).
Bottom line: if 98 is being relatively stable, leave it as is, and maybe
install IE5.5 off a magazine cover CD (yipee! Print preview!), and Media
Player if you like. There's no real new functionality in Me, so keep that in
mind.
