Several people have reported problems running Squeak on Windows 2000.
The gist of the threads that I've read on the Squeak list is that
Windows 2000 reports that it's a form of NT when you use the API to
query it, but it actually is using networking primitives more like
Win95 (i.e., they may be worse than MacOS's networking). Folks are
trying to build new VMs for Window2000 now.
