I was thinking do you guys think it would be a benifit to me to get windows2000 on my next machine. Reason i am asking is my major is computer science but im a totally newbie at all this program and what not but i have noticed that all the computers i use run 2000. I was going to start using it just to get use to using that OS. I have had windowsXP for a while now. Is there a big difference between them ?
