Only two months after the launch of Microsoft
Windows 2000, the operating system is going strong.
Yesterday at Windows World 2000 and COMDEX/Spring 2000, Microsoft announced it has licensed more than 1.5 million copies of Windows 2000 Professional, Windows 2000 Server and Windows 2000 Advanced Server since the Feb. 17 launch. That's four times the licensing rate of Windows NT Server 4.0, and the figure doesn't include volume licensing for Microsoft's largest customers around the world. Meanwhile, data from Netcraft shows that Windows 2000 is the operating system for more 64,000 Web sites-more than triple the number of sites running Windows 2000 at its launch. Industry momentum behind Windows 2000 is also apparent in new products such as a multiprocessor Windows 2000 server with 99.999 percent availability and a Windows DNA-based online bidding application for manufacturing.
