Tom,

        Maybe your original question is stemming from the installation
source of the DS tools themselves?  I'm going to be a bit lazy about
verifying this right now (sorry!), but I'm pretty sure you had to
install the Windows 2000 Administration Tools in order to get them on a
2000 Pro machine, and perhaps now they ship with the base XP O/S?  Mine
are currently in %systemroot%\system32, but I can't remember if the
Admin Tools pack put them there.  Certainly, they ship with the base
server O/S that you've installed on your laptop, so maybe you just
*thought*  they required Win2003?

executing the DS commands on a w2k3 box against a w2k AD domain will
work

I'm sorry. I wasn't being clear. 
I just wanted to know if you could use those commands on a pure win2k
domain. 
It wasn't a reason to move to win2k3. 

We'll be moving there soon. 
I'm pretty aware of all the improvements to AD and windows. 
They speak for themselevs. 

As to OS of choice, I haven't seen one of those yet. 
Maybe a combo of Monad and not having the GDI built into the kernel(more
like X windows) and some of the improvements of Novell(I know they've
been in the ldap dir game longer so its not totally fair) directory
would make an
OS of choice.      

Depending on what you're doing, of course. 
But right now, windows 2k3 is pretty sweet. 

Thanks
