Use only Windows ME for the rest of your life

Windows ME's catastrophic reputation has been overstated by some; it handled everyday computing tasks adequately for many users
The OS constraint leaves your monitor, peripherals, and all hardware entirely free to be modern

Use only a 16 inch CRT monitor

Windows ME is historically one of the most unstable operating systems released; a 16-inch CRT only limits screen size, not reliability
A physical display constraint is fixed and predictable; a crash-prone OS creates unpredictable failures across every task you attempt
A small monitor is a minor daily inconvenience; an OS that routinely crashes makes sustained productive work nearly impossible
