In my case, it's Win2k Pro, used unprofessionally.

@0rkplace, hundreds of boxen, "professionally" (no user has admin rights,
domain, internet only over proxy, usage of firefox encouraged). Rarely ever
a reinstall required unless the pc/drive goes tits up.
Now "slowly" in the process of migration to xp.

Best Windows by far, if you have your drivers.

Yes I find Win2k great...
even on pretty low end machines such as 350mhz with 128 megs of RAM.
I've tweaked my installations a bit by disabling about 6 or 8 services
plus importing msconfig from XP.


BTW: The only advantage XP has over Win2k is the better driver base...
but I made up a cd of all the XP drivers which I've extracted...
and it works very well.

Just expand all of XP's .in_ to .inf
then extract the drivers.cab (and modem.cab)
put it all in one folder and burn it to cd (about 300 megs)

The use it to update any drivers missed by win2k

another time saver is the unofficial SP5
which can be slipstreamed to a win2k automated install cd

There is only WK2 Pro (server versions excluded)

I like Wk2 it was/is my favorite windows OS, but W2K just couldn't
play the games, XP can and why I use it now.
