My personal opinion is to stick with 98SE.  It was MUCH more stable for
me.  I've had clients come back to me and ask to have ME removed and 98SE
re-installed.  To make your decision more difficult, I've have had clients
that absolutely love ME and wouldn't trade it for the world.  It seems to
me that this is based on clients with newer hardware and limited software
demands as far as multi-tasking.

With that said, I am currently running the Pro version of Windows XP.  At
this point you would have to pry it from from my cold, dead fingers for me
to give it up!!  It blows away anything that Microsoft has put out to
date.  If you can get that option in to your plans somehow, do it!
