Could you explain what Steve means by this, I thought 2000 was nothing more than an upgrade to NT. "Ballmer also expressed some regrets over Microsoft's move to replace Windows NT with Windows 2000, because of NT's enduring popularity with enterprise customers. "If we could do it again we might have left things alone," he acknowledged. Microsoft originally decided to create Windows 2000 to overcome the notion "that there was this very weird thing on the side called Windows NT." " [assuming it is an accurate quote] TIA Duke zdnet.com
