Hehe. But seriously: Simply mention ME. I'm not quite sure but I think
it would be a good idea to drop every special mentioning of W2K or 98
in the FAQ. Why not change each occurency of "NT" to "NT/W2K" and each
occurency of "95" or "98" to "9x/ME"? Except for those cases, of course, 
where a special problem of a specific OS variation is described as, for
example, the "How to get Winsock2 for Windows 95".
