I'm not too happy with the current installation of Win2K I'm running. But,
I'm a bit busy to do something about that right now :(

Once I no longer need the secondary machine for rendering (got a feeling
that will be never, but I'll have to find a stopping point), it's getting
upgraded and going to dual-boot it to Linux.

MS burns me to no end--

Win2K on Toshiba 3000 laptop--netmeeting causes BSOD!

Beyond that, I finally get laptop just the way I want it (Diablo II, EQ, and
Mindstorms/NQC, as well as business apps...) and the DVD Video overlay gets
corrupted.  So I have to use restore CD's and rebuild entire laptop from
bottom up, 'cause Win2K has this HAL thing causing us much grief and
aggrivation.

Ouch. I haven't had those Win2K horror stories. I got a mouse that hangs,
and really slow access to the file system. I need to re-format and reinstall
on this Dell Inspiron 8100, and upgrade the desktop.

Win98 = still the best from MS.

I like 2k a lot better. I just don't like MS. But, I only know a teeny bit
of MacOS, and all my stuff is on Windows. Ugh. I do want to migrate off of
it, but I keep taking on big projects that require the computer. Blah.
