I never had much in the way of problems with 98, but one thing about it is
that you can reinstall it as many times as you want to, and if you dont tell
anyone, on as many computers as you want to. With XP or 2000, you are under
Microsoft control with regard to installations and they dont want you to
install the same software on another computer without paying again or
getting special permission. I think you only get 3 reinstalls on the same
computer without getting special permission.
