Yeah, I figure I’ll just sell it or something… who knows? Maybe I’ll just hijack my dad’s girlfriend’s computer. She uses Windows XP—hope she doesn’t mind iTunes installed on her computer…

LOL Holy crap!!! Haha

Keep those tech/gear embarassments coming in!! 😛

(I’ll do another one: I have Windows ME and I worked so hard to get that stupid iPod only to discover three weeks ago that iPods are compatible with Windows 2000 and up, LOL The sad life I lead…)

Windows ME, oh god!  :o 98 Second Edition is actually better.  What is your processor speed and amount of ram?  If you meet the minimum system requirements you should get Windows XP, it’s much better.

LOL!  Well, you can right-click on your “My Computer” and select properties to get the RAM info:

If you have 256MB or more I would suggest XP, otherwise save your pennies for an upgrade / new PC.  And prepare for Gear Live shame!  :lol:

You should check your specs and compare them to the requirements for Windows XP.  XP is compatible with most systems.  My friend has it on his old PIII 500 MHZ with 32 MB of RAM .
