OK, I went to a 45-minute presentation by a guy from Microsoft and the

gist of it is that Win2K is for users of Windows NT and that the

Second Edition of Win98 is for those who use Win98.


He did say that there are more than a few programs that work with

95/98, but will NOT work with W2K -- just as there are programs that

work with 95/98 and not with NT.


The guy also gave us a URL with which you can check software (and I

think some hardware) compatibility:

www.microsoft.com/windows2000/compatible


Win98 SE seems to be a minor upgrade, although the main new feature is

something that allows you to have more than one computer in your house

or office hook up to the same Internet connection -- it's called

Internet Connection Sharing. Here's where you can read more about it:
