this is accurate; the 2000 line targeted business, and if you remember having a consumer computer with 2000 pro it didn't support a lot of hardware.

Can confirm. I upgraded my 98 box to 2000 and never did get some of my hardware working. When I told people I was using 2000 everybody assumed I had stolen it from work. I didn't. My friend stole it from work and shared it with me ;-)

A license key of 11111-1111111 worked, if I remember correctly. :-)

Nice part of that pain came when XP was released. Win 2000 drivers mostly all happily loaded into Win XP !
