Pros: very stable, quick using modem on net, backs up sys files, has a lot of driver support Cons: not a game system, expensive to buy full version, defrag takes forever to run
I picked up a copy of the Win2000 OS where I used to work, and I have to say, I was amazed by it! I was very impressed with the ease that it installed, and the fact that it had drivers for all of my hardware (even the stuff that it could be a nightmare...

Pros: Very Stable, Plug n Play actually works, Good platform for Laptops Cons: Takes up an large chuck of hard drive Real-estate
Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, the replacement for Windows NT Workstation 4.0, has a lot to recommend it: true Plug and Play standards, true power management technology, slick interface, and (finally) crash proof programming.
Pros: We finally have control over all our processes without the risk of crashing! Cons: Not much new stuff when it comes to design...looks a lot like 98.
