I have just upgraded my laptop to Win2000 (my first exposure to this

Did he really write the words "upgraded" and "Win2000" in the same
sentence?

Most assuredly he meant "downgraded" to experiment with a more primitive
technology or to run an app whose developers were not sophisticated
enough to port to Linux?
Lest I get painted with too broad a brush, you have to understand that I never moved my lab systems to NT or Win2000, etc.,  simply BECAUSE I am a Linoid (or, Unoid, with Linoid tendencies.)
