okay, i''ve read previous threads on win 2000, and this is what i''ve gained: win 2000 sucks for games. win 2000 great for development. but, what about game development? a2k

I''d put that under development. Win2000 would be a good dev platform, just not a good testing platform. At least that''s how I see it.

actually all the dx prgrams that i make under win2k run under win2k correctly
it''s just the shortcuts that the game companies use on their games that messes up win2k. just cuz the kernel is different
all i know is that i can play half-life, tiberian sun and mask of eternity on win2k
o ya, i could play mdk and aoe too

Ok, I''ll add my two cents:
Even though some people say Win2k sucks for gaming, I have to disagree, for two reasons. First of all, I have not had any problems with any game not working. And second, some games actually run faster than in 98SE.
