| | Windows 2000 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Windows 2000 (also referred to as Win2K or W2K) is a preemptible and interruptible, graphical, business-oriented operating system that was designed to work with either uniprocessor or symmetric multi-processor (SMP) 32-bit Intel x86 computers. | | | The Windows 2000 Hardware Abstraction Layer, or HAL, is a layer between the physical hardware of the computer and the rest of the operating system. | | | The Window Manager component of this driver is responsible for drawing windows and menus while the GDI (graphical device interface) component is responsible for tasks such as drawing lines and curves, rendering fonts and handling palettes. |

| | Windows 2000 and XP include a feature called Windows File Protection (WFP), part of the System File Checker, which is intended to avoid some of the common DLL consistency issues. | | | Windows is optimized for a 256KB secondary cache by default. | | | Windows NT, 2000 and XP use a configuration file called BOOT.INI to control how the operating system is booted and any startup options. |

| | Of course, if your business is using Windows 2000 Server on the back end, you will also benefit from easier installation and configuring of software, since these tasks can now be automated by remote administrators. | | | If you are upgrading from previous editions, the Windows 2000 wizards are particularly useful; they'll detect all your software and possible compatibility problems before you make the switch. | | | Although you can still expect your Linux friends to brag that their favorite OS is even more reliable, the ease of configuration in Windows 2000 and its new-and-improved reliability make for an excellent choice for any serious computer user. |

| | The problem appears to be that Windows XP is, in the eyes of many professional users, just a bloated rehash of Windows 2000 with some extra eye candy. | | | People using Windows 2000 should be in the advanced planning/early rollout stages of their upgrade to get off of Windows 2000 by now, anyway. | | | Windows XP is perhaps the worst version of Windows ever, and I have no intention of making my machine unclean by installing it. |

| | Windows 2000 Firewall |
| | Windows 2000 initially ships with all these nifty MMC extensions and snap-ins to make your life easier, and it's one of the most overlooked "cool features" that Microsoft never really hyped enough when they initially released Windows 2000. | | | I must admit that after witnessing Windows XP's sorry excuse for Firewalling (this indeed is half-baked), I was heartened to see that Microsoft left the IPSec functionality alone while upgrading Windows. | | | The firewall we will design will be a member in the right-hand pane of this window, and because I couldn't think of anything better to call it, I refer to it as "Firewall". |
