The stability you're talking about is because Windows XP is based on NT technology. Windows 2000 is exactly the same way: applications crash all the time, but very rarely have any effect on the stability of the OS.

Basically, the big differences between 2000 and XP are: (1) the terrible new interface (at least its optional), (2) the fact that it replaces the Windows 9x/Me line, which means manufacturers of games and "specialty" applications and hardware (the stuff that currently don't work on Windows 2000) will need to support XP or go out of business, and (3) some internal "dot net" stuff that most people won't care about.
