Windows 2000


The most recent addition to the Windows family, Windows 2000, is the replacement for Windows NT, adding Plug and Play support, better multimedia tools, and advanced Internet support. Like Windows NT, it comes in three versions: Workstation, Server, and Advanced Server.

NOTE
Be careful when upgrading to Windows NT or Windows 2000. They are not merely more powerful versions of Windows 98, but more robust, completely new environments. Not all applications and hardware are compatible with them. Be sure to consider all the advantages and disadvantages before making the decision to upgrade. Then check the Microsoft Web site for the latest version of the compatibility list.
