I own 2 of the items that made the list. I have a PCjr and a Zip 100 drive. They work great together!

My guess was number 2 on the list, RealPlayer.

I must have led a sheltered life only had 2 of them.Windows ME only because a second hand computer i bought came installed with it, it lasted a month and then installed 98se. Internet Explore 6, in those days you had no choice.

Let me see... I had....

Microsoft Windows Millennium (2000)
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 (2001) and the
Iomega Zip Drive (1998)

I think I escaped relatively unscathed, although I did buy Millennium

Never had issues with IE6. As for Iomega, I still have my portable USB unit with about 50 unused disks.

Too bad this is four years old now.

Had a Zip drive (just came out) as an option installed in my new Dell, then it stopped working after a week. Dell sent a tech, who spent 3 visits trying to get it to work (new technology), finally got it up and running.

It was quite handy at the time, because writeable cds were just coming out, but were $$$.

Yeah looking at some of those items kind of gave it away. Still fun to look at though
