I get the feeling that Microsoft changed Win2000 from a general platform
to a business platform at the last minute because they had MAJOR
problems that were unlikely to be resolved within the perceived release
date of the product.
THAT is way they are now waiting for the next generation of O/S, so that
they can have more time. The impression I got was they were having major
problems with device drivers. Obviously this area needs to be as good as
Win98 to allow games to play games on a variety of systems.
