Your opinions please.... I have an older laptop (P90 40mb ram) I only use this for surfing etc when @home is down. I am presently running 98 SE but I use Netscape( I know I know....) my question is does anyone run 98 lite? Seems this may be a good option for my ageing laptop? Any opinions? Good or bad ? Thanks...

I've used it before. It's pretty good for removing that extra crap out of win98. it does speed up your system a small bit as well.

Excellent program. I used it on the network clients at school. I noticed a considerable difference in speed (P133s/32 megs ram mostly

)

Netscape didn't crash as much either. Who know eh?

Thanks guys, perhaps I will give it a go! I just have the preview version, is the win98 Lite Professional version bigtime different from the preview?

the full version removes the html part from win98 help files. I never used that part, I was always satisifed with just the removing the win98 shell and replacing it with the win95 shell. If you replace the shell with the win95 shell, just be aware that you won't be able to customize your start menu to the extent of win98. but it is worth it, as it is more stable as well.
