    Behold the power of a completely arbitrary top # list! Not sure if they even bothered ranking them or if they just numbered them (and proper suspence dictates that the #1 should have been at the END), but that's a nice selection of badly made stuffs.

    We started our online experience with AOL is '97. I hated it and we moved on to a decent provider after a year. Good to see them getting the recognition they deserve.

    I don't think I've ever used any of those products.

    Saw that yesterday... not the best list ever, but not awful... not sure if I'd list WinME though. :D I mean, it is the worst version of Windows since 2.0, but I use it and my computer still runs decently so...

    Also, I like RealPlayer. I still use it as my main media player -- it blows away Windows Media Player, IMO. I know that it's on their list because of the privacy issues it once had, but they don't do that without consent anymore, so there's not a problem...

    And while Zip drives' click-of-death syndrome is a pain, I still like the things as floppy replacements because burning CDs/DVDs is a hassle and normal floppies are too small. I guess thumbdrives and stuff like that are the current answer... but I do wish Zips has been more successful. This computer, and the two we had before it. all had Zip drives in them...

    AOL being #1 is a good choice, however. :)

    Oh yeah, and those "top lists" which rank #1 first are definitely lame... put it in reverse order, it only makes sense!
