Very nice compared to previous versions of Windoze. So far it seems to be very stable. But...there appears to be no drivers for scanners and CD-R writers. I've accumulated a mass of slides that I need to scan, but my scanner won't work. Several visits to the manufacturer web site indicates that they are working on it, but no due date. E-mails to the manufacture voicing my distress have gone unanswered. Visits to other manufacturers indictates the case is about the same for all the scanner makers. I don't understand what major changes they made to Win2000 that broke all the previous scanner software drivers--all my other software seems to work just fine. And before anyone suggests it, yes, I know I can always go back to Win98 or even set up a dual boot machine. Just haven't gotten around to it.
