New features in Windows 2000 include: - Active Directory. - Greatly improved built-in security mechanisms, including Kerberos-based authentication, public key support, an encrypting file system, and IPsec support. - Integrated web browser - Internet Explorer 5.0. - Integrated web server - IIS 5.0 - Terminal services for displaying application interfaces on remote computers (similar to X-Windows). - File protection that prevents user programs from accidentally deleting or overwriting critical system files. - Improved hardware support, including Plug-and-Play, DVD, IEEE-1394 (FireWire), USB, infra-red, PCMCIA, ACPI, laptop computers. - Improved user interface, including a single point to control the entire system. - Improved management tools, including remote administration. Minimum system requirements, according to Microsoft, are Pentium-133 MHz CPU, 64 MB RAM, 650 MB of hard disk space. These are for W2K Professional, others require more.
