[TenTec] Re: XP v. 98

[Rob Atkinson, K5UJ]

I still run win98 and have no probs & in fact, I have heard that because it 
is so old, it is more immune to hacker/worm/virus attacks now.  Also, I have 
heard that with some of the ham software, you may need real DOS instead of 
the DOS emulator.

OTOH, I can heartily recommend dumping Internet Explorer and going to 
www.mozilla.org, and downloading the Firefox 1.0 browser.  It installed 
easily on my ancient 9 year old win98 machine, cookies, bookmarks, history 
etc. moved over to it no problem, and it runs noticeably faster than IE, 
AND, no popups.  If it works on my PC, it will probably work on anything 
newer.
