I have both Win2k and XP Pro; XP Pro was my only choice on the new machine because there were no Win2k video drivers for the video card. Prefer WIN2k. Firewire and USB 2 work just fine in WIN2k. WIN2k is leaner; takes up less disk space, which is a consideration when making a backup image if you have a separate partition just for your os and programs (recomemended). Networking is friendlier in Win2K if networking different versions of Windows. If you have an older computer, use Win2k.
