I’m still carrying a Win2K Pro image around in VMware. It runs all the windows software I need (and this is the right way to choose an operating system IMO) and if it gets screwed up I can always blow it away and revert to the snapshot that’s got all the service packs installed.


What software would that be, if you don’t mind my asking? I was under the impression that Win2K support had been dropped from most software several years ago.


EDA and CAD programs. Expensive software but I don’t need the vendors’ “support” so their thoughts on my operating systems are not important to me.
