I am trying to setup multiple computers with every version of Windows from
Win 3.1 on. Is it possible to obtain a Windows ME installation disk?
Any info would be really helpful.

I guess most of us on this forum have one. The question is, can we give it to
you legally?

I'm sure you'll find Windows Me on e-Bay at a reasonnable price.

The retail version and brand new for $139.95.
But there are others. H.

I see the concept of charity is lost on you.

Or is it that you don't know enough to know that what matters alleged
'software piracy'-wise is the key, not the installation files?

Or is it that you're such a sad fux0r that you can't bear the thought of an
all-but-worthless years-out-of-date electronic-related product going for a
song, because to you it's a status symbol?

I have a 5400rpm 30 gigabyte Maxtor hdd sitting around here I've been trying
to give away rather than throw away. It was once worth thousands of pesetas,
now it is worth nothing, except to a maroon. Should I throw it away rather
than give it away, because a bunch of sad sax still use them and haven't
cottoned on to their actual worth, and desperately want to maintain the
illusion of an age of craftsmanship long gone whereby the value of consumer
goods does not drop like the proverbial? Though I believe that was *before*
the age of electrickery.

'New' on ebay? Microsoft stopped selling Windows Millennium Edition years
ago. Perhaps you mean 'unused'. Microsoft stopped supporting Windows ME
years ago - it is a liability now because the vulnerabilities don't get
rectified anymore. The only intelligent use of any Windows 9x system today
is as a working museum piece. XP was released seven years ago and soon even
that will no longer be supported.

If there's one thing worse than a gullibull it's one who snorts his acquired
ignorance at others.

The OP asks for an "installation disk", not "installation files".

Yes, one can buy "new" stuff on e-Bay. Meaning unopened.

I'm sure that will come as a surprise to you but the value of an
object has nothing to do with the opinion you might have of it, no
matter how "intelligent" it might be. LOL. Some museum pieces can
fetch quite a good price by the way.

And what's a "maroon"?

Are we witnessing the reincarnation of 'Shane'?
If so, you are totally 'off base' in this instance, and even if you were not
him.
A 'little more' objectivity is recommended.
