> Okay, that's what I thought. What did you mean about the "unlikely to be installing .NET on a non-XP system" part? As far as I understand it, .NET, ASP.NET, etc. installs just as well on Win2k as it does on XP. Thus Win2k would work fine.

By non-XP I meant Win95/98/Me (DOS boot types) that can't install .NET (AFAIK).

Sorry for the confusion.
