Indeed after hearing about Windows 2000, I'm under the belief that it wasn't the OS at fault, but rather the horridly outdated and poorly maintained systems that the school was running it on. They never saw a defrag in their life, and took at least 10-15 minutes to book up, and even at that, doing anything was painfully slow. Should you accidentally hit the start button or run something, you were in for another painfully long wait.

I apologise to the Win 2000 fans. I never actually have tried it on a system in much greater health, but from what I've heard in the last few days, I'm sure it's not that bad, and guess I was just a bit mis-lead by the ridiculous systems they ran on.

I'm actually very willing to bet the school is still running those systems today.
