Windows 2000 Beta

Advantages: there gives it a lot there
Disadvantages: also gives it a great deal

...Windows 2000 is a compound from Windows 98 and Windows NT. The surface and divide the user managers became undertaken from 98 and the more stable heart comes from NETWORK TERMINAL. What is actual new in the case of Windows 2000? Hardware is mostly arranged without new start and it is now also that so-called Hot- have Plugin, the mean one can devices at serial and parallel ones as well as the USB and the Firewall external into current company connection connecting, that may be recognized arranged then automatic. Active has desktop too in Windows 2000. What a very good renewal is, the recoveries consoles, with her, one can cancel attitudes and it returns the system into a stable original state in the case of problems. Very gadget who thinks Windows in 2000 is rapid as 98 that is mistaken, the Windows 2000-11-28 is not more rapid than...

Windows 2000

Advantages: Internet Orientated
Disadvantages: Internet Orientated

...The version of Windows 2000 I purchased was Windows ME, which is basically the home user version, with Windows 2000 the business version of the latest Microsoft Operating System. Windows 2000 is an exellent upgrade package if you are Internet orientated. It is really based around the internet, with automatic Windows upgrades direct from the net. There is also a lot of extra features that were not featured in Windows 98. I personally think that if you have Windows 98 and are not really planning on using the Internet, then there is no need to upgrade to Windows Me, but if you want your Operating System to be Internet orientated then I would highly recommend that you buy Windows 2000....

Windows 2000

Advantages: see write
Disadvantages: see write

...Hallo on all sides, before some time, I decided to tell to my completely error-prone Windows 98 adé and then changed onto Windows in 2000. Since I yes am still pupil, I yes enjoy a certain privilege (students and teachers also enjoy this privilege) in the case of Microsoft products. Short declaration for aller that not know it. Microsoft offers so-called SIMULATOR SCENARIO LANGUAGE versions. Once office 2000 and then simply Windows in 2000 (or optionally Windows 98 SE). I must still say to this that one can buy this product nich in every loading. I have it but bought in the media market namely at the price of 129 DM !!!! If one has bought this product, one receives a small box, when they are itself a registration form. One must fill this form and can it then to Microsoft fax (however, one must send the fax to Holland, what the call...

Security Of NT5 Windows 2000

Advantages: Good Secure OS (see opinion)
Disadvantages: Not as secure as promised (see opinion)

...Microsoft have done it! They have finally released an operating system which meets all the necessities of the everyday user. I used to use Windows 98 for networking/games, then upgraded to Windows NT4.0 (where no games would run), now in Windows 2000 you get the best of both worlds. However if you are upgrading from Windows 9x to Windows 2000 Pro you should be aware of how to secure your system, and how to stop any "hackers" from entering. Many people rely on a firewall, however this is really so extreme and a good setup computer shouldnt need a firewall at all. 1. When installing the OS, make sure that you unplug your network cable for the final section of the install, this is to make sure no hackers can read your data (Windows 2000 doesnt set your security until the very last stages). 2. Make sure the passwords are...

Upgrade Immidiately to MS Windows XP Professional

Advantages: Easy booting, less crashes, much faster and yes user friendly
Disadvantages: Dual boot becomes a problem

...all the OS is very software friendly. Even system crashes is far less frequent with Windows XP Professional. It has overcome the unfriendly interface woes of Windows 2000. The best of it is that disk partitioning and formatting the HD has become much more easier with XP which means in case your OS gives you problem, even a reasonably eloquent user can reload or even format or partition the hard disk just by reading the massages properly, in fact the option for formatting individual drives are there. The backup option is great. Create a back up of your files and remove all the partitions then format and recreate your disk partitions to your requirements. I think it's one of the safest OS when you're online with continuos software and security updates from Microsoft, it's avisable to upgrade the ie to ie 8 for best surfing experince. To my...

Windows 2000 not what you thought

Advantages: good for networks, fast
Disadvantages: not for home users

...A wide misconception of Windows 2000 is that it is the version after Windows 98, but it isn’t. It really is the next version of Windows NT, and it isn’t for home users. It can be used for office networks both large and small, but beware it isn’t for the faint hearted. You can set up hard disc shares for many users, which can be useful for networks where many users utilise a few computers, making it unwieldy and unsafe for each user to use the normal hard disc. It can also be used to give shares of a fast internet connection to all the other computers from the Network server. But this isn’t very good if there are an awful lot of computer on at once. For your network needs it is fine, but this isn’t for home users, please remember....

Very Stable Operating System (for Microsoft!)

Advantages: Stable O/S, good security with updates from the net, easy to use
Disadvantages: Internet connection essentual for upgrades! Basic Windows appearance

...The best thing I can say about Windows 2000 is that is the most stable and compatible Microsoft operating system that I have ever used. Before I had this installed on my computer I had Windows XP, and had no end of problems with it including system errors on a daily basis! Once this was cleaned off my hard drive and replaced with 2000, no more errors or crashes and finally a stable environment to work in! The good points are: 1) Very stable environment! - As Windows 2000 was built on NT technology (designed for networks and security) it has all the advantages of that operating system and more. The OS is designed to be used easily by the home user on one or more machines and works extremely well over a network, as you would expect. However with 2000 you have a lot more program compatibility with applications and games than NT...

Microsoft Office Professional

Advantages: IT'S COOL LOOKING
Disadvantages: YOU HAVE A DEADLINE TO MEET?.....DON'T USE!!

...a better result? gee!! not for me at least because, what i feel working with the product is CLUMSINESS, i practically have to look for almost every thing(buttons) to carry out some functions ( THANK GOD FOR SOME SHORT CUTS). One good thing that was done on it anyways, is the fact that you are presented with different "Save AS" options. But take my advice, if you have to work with MS office professional 2007, be sure you save your documents with the "97 - 2003" option because God help you if you are sending that finished document to someone like myself who has decided to stick with MS office 2003 ( atmost 2005) and believe it or not there are quite a number out there. My opinion - Microsoft Office Professional 2007 is cool, but i LOVE my reliable and dependable and easy to USE MS office professional 2003....

Stay Tune With your 486DX4

Advantages: Described in Opinion
Disadvantages: Described in Opinion

...These days I am really busy managing my new local area networks and the integrated applications (for processing the administrative works on Palm Oil Plantation and Factories / Mills) installed on the servers with Windows 2000 Server edition as the operating system (OS). Based on my latest experience and observation on Windows 2000 Server edition, here I would like to share it with you, especially its outstanding feature that makes your old PCs work well and as if you were working on the server. Backgrounds Formerly my applications were designed using CLIPPER 5.3. They ran under Microsoft Drive Operating System (DOS 6.22) as the OS and Novel 4.11 was installed on the servers. Seeing the need to make changes on the previous applications, we have finished designed and programmed the new applications using Microsoft Visual...

Windows Whistler 2001 BETA 1

Advantages: Best MS operating system I have ever used (so far)
Disadvantages: Only in BETA

...Windows Whistler is the replacement for Windows 2000. Whistler is to be released in the 3rd to 4th quarter of 2001 (So they say) and is to replace Windows 2000 and Windows ME. This will be a fine day in my opinion to at last get home users off the ageing Win9X DOS core. (A common misconception is that Windows ME is not based on the Win9x core but it is and still has all the flaws that come with it.) Whistler seems very stable for a BETA version, but then it is only a rebuild and not a redesign like Windows 2000 was. With all the features of Windows ME and 2000 it has become larger and wants a good 1GB of hard disk space to install. Whistler will be released in all the current flavours that Windows 2000 is available in, with the addition of Personal edition. The personal edition is meant for the home user and does not support 3 major...
