I haven't used Windows 2000 ever I went from MS DOS, Win 3.11,95,98,XP.
Although I was rather brassed off that some of the games I have ran
perfectly on win 98 but not on XP. Although I am still a Linux newbie but
I have set up my system so the mrs (which she is use to windows) can
easily use it. She hasn't stuffed it up yet I have a few times. Good
thing to I can upgrade my Linux (ubuntu) via my ISP mirror and does not
effect my download limit. Another bonus of free software. :-)
