Win 2K and XP are not the same in anyway so expect Win2K to advance still
as the defacto server and desktop OS for Windows users.  Xp, the joke about
Xp is that Bill Gates had to rush something out as soon as Mac OS X10.1.2
hit the street to be competitive.  Bill Gates said this in a speech last
year as Xp hit the junk pile.

If you install Adobe PhotoDeluxe 2.0 on Win2K, sleep and hibernate will
not function.
