Lately I've had some serious glitches with my gaming computer, and as a temporary network troubleshooting effort as much as anything, installed a couple of games on my work computer as a control test. As it turns out, this measure may be more than temporary, as this machine seems to not only clear up the problem I was addressing, and plays everything I've tried so far flawlessly, in spite of this machine's use of Windows 2000 Professional, which Microsoft readily admits is not very well suited for game playing. Go fig.

R.I.P.: Bee Gees singer Maurice Gibb dies. Thanks ZigZang.

Maybe I'm dreaming, but when Win2k first came out IRC it was hyped as a gaming platform but there were scores of games that it wouldn't run.

I remember it as the opposite. Win2k was promoted as a business OS, 'bullet proof' haha windows.

I ran it until XP arrived. I've had zero problems with XP. My machine at work has been up since the day it was installed (except for reboots for security updates).

and let's face it obsolete in computers doesn't take long).

The way M$ has dropped support for older OS's is disappointing to me. It's still their product, they should do something for it. I won't bother with all the analogies.
