I don't understand the move to win2000. Don't get me wrong, I'm not putting him down at all... but administrating win2000 w/ i would presume 2k server is a "little" cumbersome compared to xp pro and 2003. unless it's budget, then MS should step up to the plate.
Heh- this kid needs to learn the power of Linux. I could've done that when I was 11 - 4 years ago. But Windows 2000? the computers are old. Putting linux on would make them more modern. And my school won't let me run the network :-(
The Triumph proved to be one of the better looking and performing pre-paid handsets we'd had the pleasure of holding in our sweaty mitts, but we had one major hangup: the name.

ahhh, the youth
he is going for Win2000
tssk tssk tssk.....
Read the article. They are on a shoestring and their comps are old. Yeah? Going for Vista? No... I don't think the outdated hardware can handle it.
Having lived in West Texas, Mississippi, and Louisiana... it's fortunate that the Arkansas school isn't using 95, baby steps my friend baby steps.
I'm sure this news will get to Microsoft somehow and hopefully a charitable donation of XP copies will be ok, either that or better computers.

I'm pretty sure from my experience windows 2000 was the worst operating system since the invention of dogs.

"I'm pretty sure from my experience windows 2000 was the worst operating system since the invention of dogs."
I believe nothing can beat Windows ME for that title.
@Jordan. I think you mean Me. Windows 2000 was far better than windows 98 / NT 4.0...
2000 is a solid and good working OS, dunno where you're getting your info on it...
@Jordan:
Correction. ME was the most unstable release of Windows so far.
Win2K is a perfectly reasonable, networkable, OS for older computers. I've run it on about 40MB of RAM. I'd like to see you try that with XP or Vista.
I stand confused and corrected.
I suspect Jon doesn't know that Windows 2000 is about to EOL.
He should move to Xubuntu as soon as possible.
now, that 11 years old kid is far better than Jordan.
