You really don't want ME.  98SE would even be a better choice than ME.
 I ran MMTTY on 98SE and it worked FB.

XP would be a better first choice, followed by W2K, which is long in
the tooth at this point, but not that much longer than XP.

The upside is that older lappys capable of running XP should be pretty
cheap these days given that new ones can be founds in the $500-700
range!
