I know that my Win98 box wouldn't be able to sim more than a few years overnight. My advice would be to purchase a new PC a little more with the times. I would also guess that OOTP probably would work on Win98, but that some tweaks may be necessary.

I don't believe that his post was to illustrate the older operating system that he is using but rather it is very likely that his post was trying to draw attention to the fact that the website says that the new version of the game is compatible with Win98, and in his experience (last year's game), such a statement may not be accurate. I found his request to be reasonable and necessary. Hopefully someone in the "know" will be kind of enough to answer it.
