Win 2000 is faster and leaner then XP. But XP has one thing I really like. Cleartype fonts that work great for LCD monitors. So much sharper.

Yes. One thing I do have complaints about Windows 2K is how difficult it is to use high resolution monitors. Sure Windows 2K will run a 1600 x 1200, but it can be difficult to read full some of the text in dialog boxes and messages from the operating system even on a 21-inch monitor. The size of menus and text is not really indepedent of the screen resolution. Windows XP seems to have the ability to scale them up without having to change "themes".
