Much better than 98SE, much less intrusive than XP. Will probably be the best Windows version to use for many people. Based on NT 5.0, Windows 2000 is very stable and much more reliable than 98SE. Online Windows upgrades work well, automating patch downloads and application. Never had much luck with Microsofts support in general, but with easy updates, perhaps I wont need them. Note that I dont use Microsofts web browser or mail program, preferring Netscape and The Bat! for much better security, etc. If you use 98 or older, definitely upgrade to 2000, especially if your hardware is from 2000 or newer.

I didn't use Win Xp . I have Win 98 SE and Win 2000 Professional on My PC (P IV 1.8 GHz) I found this window really fast, and less errors in the internet. the problem is for gaming , Non of my games except Max Payne and Black and White worked on it. Otherwise it's a great Operating system for Internet and networking.

Slightly better than '98 |

Cons:
Poor hardware support,endless patches needed for software It seems some people here like Win 2000 but I and many other people I have talked to have had nothing but problems with it. It has poor support for so much hardware out there and requires patches all the time for existing and older software. XP Pro on the other hand seems pretty solid and I have had only problems with one of Adaptecs' older software programs.
Why so many schools are still pushing this crappy O/S are beyond me, but then again most of them tend to be private schools more concerned with pumping out endless grads into an already very over saturated IT market.
