I have read some articles that the next version of W2K, codenamed Whistler will maybe be out by end 2001, probably closer towards mid-2002 I would guess, but, if this is so close, why spend time, and money on certification, only to have to redo it soon? Just a thought.

Thanks and keep up the good work TechRepublicans.

From the articles I've read, they are coming out with an update to Windows ME in late 2001 or 2002 ... this is because ME was supposed to be based on NT technology - it isn't.

The certification is for W2K Professional and Server Software ... not for the standard user desktop OS's.

Whistler is a common "update" both for both "low end" equ gamming desktops and professional desktops and servers (for X86 and IA64 architecture) based on W2K/NT technology.
FYI:If you are MSDN Universal Subscriber
you may now download beta 1 of whistler in version personal, professional and advance server...
