- Daunted by the unending onslaught, you curl up into a ball and weep
Microsoft Windows ME is the Battletoads of operating systems.
The final boss is acknowledging the hubris of believing you could ever win.
That final boss is easy. Just do Ctrl+Alt+Del, and then start killing all processes one-by-one until you get the blue screen of victory
Blue screen of victory?
Fuck, I haven't laughed that hard in a long time! ๐๐คฃ
