Kevin;
You should  have Personal Web Server (PWS) on your win98 CD's.  You can 
configure this to view your files before uploading them to the server.  
However ASP uses a database especially if your going to add/change products.  
You'll need a copy of that database.  ASP  is a fun medium in which  to work. 
 Enjoy.

Kevin. You should still be able to use Notepad, because that is what
I use when I create ASP pages. The only thing that I would watch out
for, is that when you design the pages (and I am assuming that you
are going to be using server server side ASP rather than client side ASP)
that they have to be uploaded to a server before they can be viewed 
correctly.
With client side I am not sure because I never use it. This can be 
particularly
frustrating when you want to test them and they don't work because they
are not uploaded. I once completely redesigned the page because
I forgot to turn the server on. If you ever run into any problems there
are lost of great ASP discussion boards out there for help.
