I've been using Win2000 since Oct.  No major issues.  The main thing is that
even when problems, I've not lost data!
I make PowerPoint presentations that are 26MB and larger.  Photoshop 5.5 and
others install and run OK.

BUT I am using an HP laptop for all my computer use.  During a presentation
last week, the entire mouse function quit, the pad, pointer, external mouse
(PS2)ALL QUIT. Even re-booting didn't fix it.  Took it back after the
presentation (ENTER Key still worked) and no problems!!!!AARGH!!!!!  I'm
pretty sure it was a computer problem rather than 2000 (which is derived
from NT). Someone told me that NT stands for Not There!

I did use NT for ~ 2 years with no MAJOR hassles.  Again, no lost data. A
few quirks, but most of those were due to the weird drivers Gateway put into
their laptops to run NT, which WAS NOT designed for laptops.
