you should run into no problems with windows 2000 on a laptop, I have one sat here with win 2000 server on it which gets thrown in as a replacement whenever I lose one of my proper servers, seems to cope with high loads fine and has not been re-installed for 4 years (in my book thats pretty reliable for a windows based system) my only gripe with windows 2000 is that it is slow to boot up. |

It's a Toshiba Satellite with 1.06 GHz Celeron and 256 MB RAM. 15 GB HD with 14.1" TFT display. 22 Mbps wireless card. Currently has XP Pro and runs great. I really only used it as a toy...It has little use as I dont travel with it. I used the battery about 6 times so it should still hold a nice charge.... PM me if you're interested. I'd sell it for $300 or so. I also have a laptop with a 486-25 (DX) if you want something a little (er...a lot) cheaper :-) --- End quote --- only im in australia so im looking locally. i forgot to ask the obvious question: does mame run well on win2000? im guessing it should... |
