Finding W2K was Re: La Machine Est Morte, Vive La Machine!

[Bill Troop billtroop@xxxxxxxx]

It is extremely easy to find pirate copies of W2K online, and,
moreover, Microsoft recommends that users who need copies should do
this. Microsoft is barred under the terms of a settlement with Sun
from distributing most of its earlier versions of Windows, including
W2K. Serials are also easy to find. Just use google.


As has been discussed here earlier, http://winworldpc.com/ is one
source. My advice is to install from one of the many ISOs available.
I have not been as happy using pre-installed VM images. It is
important to get a version of W2K that includes ALL possible
additions and service packs. You will be letting yourself in for
hours of unnecessary tinkering if you don't.
