That is something I can't wait for. All these hot fixes are driving me mad

Thanks for the info.

If you had to sum up the major differences/features between 2000 Pro and XP Pro, what would you say?

I'm thinking in terms of features such as the RollBack utility.

Hi Pavlov,

XP has a lot of features not included in windows 2000, the best of which are:

Configuration rollback
Driver rollback
Alternate IP configurations
Remote assistant
Virtual Desktops
Network Bridging
Software firewall (Not that good to be honest)
Support for IP V6 (When it finally arrives)

To name but a few, if the .NET servers build upon XP technology and functionality then it should be interesting as XP, in my opinion, is the best Microsoft OS to date.
