Some of those products I would take a second look at I still have a Cue Cat (its usefull for some of the hacks that came out for it) The Zip Drive I realy liked since at the time CDR drives costed like 1,200$ or some crazy amount..... but the click of death did suck ! Windows ME did suck but if you knew exactly what you where doing it did work well (IE editing your registry by hand to stomp out bugs from poorly written drivers and driver uninstall rutines!)People think MS was playing the blame game with the driver issues but it was totaly true ! (Its a sad fact that even mighty XP can be brought to its knee's by poorly written drivers)

The rest of list I pretty much agree with lol

I love it that AOL is number 1. I remember having a zip drive 100mb on one disk was very useful while at school. Real player has always been annoying.
