Windows 2000 Server Question
Is it possible to update from Windows 2000 Pro to Windows 2000 Server in an unofficial way? Also, anyone here use Windows 2000 Server as their primary OS? How well does it work? How good is networking and ICS? Application support is probably the same as Pro? Games? Dual boot should be possible too.

I have never used Server editions before so I was just curious.

I don't think you'd want to try. There would be alot of (illegal?) work involved.
I use it at home (until I finish my current job) It runs like 2kpro. Drivers for voodoo cards and modems etc seem to be all the same.
I've never had any problems. It does require a slightly higher spec machine. And if you want to use it properly (install AD) then you'll need a second computer at least. Active Directory requires an active network connection to install, but there is a way to get around this, using a piece of virtual hardware.
ICS works fine, but if you're serious you can use RRAS instead to set up a networked internet sharing solution.
I rate it.
