2K Server can use more RAM than 2K Pro

The various versions of Windows 2000 Server can address more physical RAM (and amount of processors installed) than Windows 2000 Professional Workstation, which is why I made that distinction.

Unless you have a server in your home (which is happening more often these days), your Windows 2000 home computer would be a 'workstation' in M$ jargon.

M$ is in fact working on a "Windows Home Server" operating system, to cater to this growing market (IMHO, one of their better ideas of late...)

Athlon 1.1 - 768 MB RAM = 98SE & XP Home

Athlon 3000+ 64 - 1024 MB RAM = 98SE (@768 MB RAM) & XP Pro

IBM ThinkPad PIII 900 - 384 MB RAM = 98SE & XP Pro SP2
