I'll echo that here, too. My shack PC runs W2K Professional and in 3
or 4 years, when I need to give the system an enema, it will get W2K
re-loaded, provided they're still issuing security patches for it.
Yeah, it's pretty long in the tooth and it still looks like Windows
95, but it's never crashed ONCE on a machine that's usually up 24/7.
The only change I'm going to make is to re-format the box that's
acting as a server in my basement with W2K Server instead of XP Pro.
Cheers,
