Because some software won't work with Windows2000?
I have a couple of old HP printers (including a laser jet that I purchased back in 1996 for use with Windows 95) that work great for me on XP. Windows Vista forced most users of older hardware to abandon perfectly good hardware as drivers were not available. Whether they are available for Windows 7 or upcoming Windows 8, I don’t know but don’t plan to switch until MS pulls the plug on XP.
Exactly!
It was only about three years ago that I gave up my Windows 2000 Pro.
What a rock solid OS that was. Nothing ever crashed it. It just plain worked.
Heck, I’m still using Win98 on a couple of my computers at work. XP on my main computer at work, Vista at home, Win7 on my laptop. My Office version is 2003. I’m sick of the constant upgrades.
LOL!
No Chit!
I have XP on my desktop, but the machine I use most is my laptop, and it has Win2K!

Win 2K actually felt more solid to me than the first release of XP. I'm on XP now, completely skipped Vista, and haven't bothered to migrate to Win 7 yet.
