NT 4 was auite a challenge in the past to upgrade and keep in a stable state. Fortunately with Win2K and post NT4 SP6, no "new features" are installed with service packs. Only fixes/patches.
Windows 2000 is quite friendly with service packs, usually not demanding a re-application after the installation of new software. This has helped out quite a bit.
Why shouldn't Microsoft be allowed to enforce their license agreements? It's not uncommon for the Slashdot community to get up in arms about some "no-name" software publisher violating the GPL.
Get over it.

Windows Update is supported on Windows 95, 98, 98SE, ME, and 2000. It's been around since IE4, I think. Great tool.
I juist installed SQL 2000 today. It asked for me to enter a password. You have to explicitly check a box if you want a "blank" password.
