I actually like XP for all the modern little things it gives you. I
can just attach my digital camera, bang it has the pix. Automatic
slideshows too. If you like games, lots of stuff won't work on WIn2k.
I've not had any problems with it and it rarely if ever goes down. I
think its gone down like 2 times. I've had it for a few months.

I'm sure there are negatives, but I'm not sure what they are. FWIW, I
liked win2k as well (and use it at work).
