Most of the info i have read on WIN2K has been fairly complementry of it.
I must say, I installed RC1 way back, and it was actually really good then,
although there are a few more drivers availible now, i.e. most hardware
manufactores are releasing WIN2K drivers in either beta or final form.....so
far, it actually looks promising !
and yes, being able to use USB ports WILL be great !
