Eldmannen Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 Well, dont expect to play the latest games on it at 2008, because no that will definitly not work. But it will be by no terms a bad computer. Sure there will be much faster and better computers avaible. But it will play all the games of today (which will be old by then, but still decent entertainment) it will also be good for surf the internet, listening music, reading mail, writing documents and most casual stuff.

Moderators Andavari Posted November 11, 2005 Moderators Share Posted November 11, 2005 It should still be good in 2008, however even two year old customized to the brim systems like mine have what is now considered an ancient graphics card when compared to what's new.

Eldmannen Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 Windows 98 is no longer supported by Microsoft anymore. It is ancient. But my brother still runs it on his computer, since his computer is old. Many people also prefer Windows 98 due to the simplicity, low system demands and light-weight.

I do however miss not having a DOS mode in NT based OSes formatted with NTFS for the simple fact that a DOS mode allows for easy removal of some nasty stuff, and since there's a plethora of DOS tools that I miss on a daily basis.
