2000 looks just like 98 to me, but with added features and more crash-resistance. And everything I used on my computer under 98se works fine under 2000.

OK, OK, Imperator Fyron. I grant you your point about WIN 2000. I still prefer 98SE.

But, I hope we still agree WIN XP SUCKS!!!

In mi experience w2k sp3 is the most stable of all MS OS.

If you have a machine that support w2k / XP, go for w2k.
If not, go for w98SE

I run W2k here and NEVER had any game NOT running on my PC. It's a great OS, the best Microsoft has ever released (except maybe XP, never tried it, but all the others ).

Win XP does not 'SUCK'

Please explain to me how a 8 year old operating system is branded a 'non-suck.'

There are many articles out there that compare the 9x , nt and xp o/s's for gaming...

ANd XP wins.

In 6 years when what ever MS is running then...

You people will say it sucks and XP is good.
