I dont know, I have been hearing alot about this windows millenium and its release in late may, I just read it on win2k box , site.I just dont get it, there saying win 2000 pro is srictly for business and millenium is for the "individual" or in my opinion the home user, others are calling it the gaming operating system. Right now im using win 2000 pro voodoo3 3000 SRICTLY for games and sometimes ill swich over to do business. You could not ask for a more stable system than the one i have. Fortunately for me it was free;[hehehehe] but for someone who shells out billsd for it and finds out this nonsence might be pissed, But why did MS do it is my question? Probably just to make a buck. Just my opinion on this and for all you people who think its not a good idea to use win 2000 for gaming, Im living proof YOUR WRONG>.
anyone fell free to comment on this, because im juat a curious freak!!!!

It's Microsoft's declared intention to revise each product once a year.
 
It's also their declared intention to have all their OSs based on a single code base.
 
So every year, for the past several years, their "prefered OS" NT (aka W2K) gains more of the features that are effectively beta-tested in the consumer version (Win3.1/3.11/W4WG/9x).
 
At some time in the future, Ms will only have one OS base. Until then, expect a yearly "update" for Joe Consumer to complain about.
