I have to admit that for speed, I'd use 98.  Unfortunately it had a
habit of crashing and building up a collection of garbage, forcing
frequent reloads/rebuilds.

I gave up and went to W2k.  Have to use XP now because I support it.
They're waaaaay more solid, in my experience.

If 98 works for you, more power to you.  Hopefully you can run
everything you need to under it.

I believe support for 98 is ending shortly.  I don't know it well enough
to talk about security, but I hope you're adequately protected.


Then of course there's linux :)
I like not rebooting.
