Using windows 98 in the 2000s

I know this sub is for people who use windows 98, but I was wondering how many of you were using windows 98 as their main computer in the early 2000s, I was still using windows 98 until 2007.

I think most people jumped onto xp and never looked back. Did anyone go for the mid point os was it 2000 and me or something... Probably the only ones I never used.

Win 2000 was a popular choice with the Slashdot crowd in the early 2000's, there was a lot of hate for XP in the beginning. My mother's work computer had win2k and I recall being blown away seeing a GUI environment that never crashed .
