Windows ME (or Me or Millennium Edition, depending who you ask) marks a turning point for Microsoft, although not in any technological sense; as you might expect, Windows ME is little more than warmed-over Windows 98 in terms of the essential operating system bits and pieces. Instead it's a turning point in terms of marketing - Windows ME is the first operating system exclusively targeted at the home market. Every other Microsoft operating system from DOS upwards has seen service on corporate desktops as well as in the home (in spite of what Microsoft might have intended). But now the Microsoft marketing machine says that corporate users should now purchase Windows 2000 whilst home users should purchase Windows ME.
