I have to agree with you Alan whole heartedly.   I also have to use win2k
for some electronic design tools that we use here.  I have yet to have win2k
crash on me.  It is definitely one of MS's
most polished products.  I still prefer Linux but at least now I can run my
MS based tools and
be done with it with minimal pain.
