Purpose of FidoNet WIN2000 - Windows 2000 Support Echo
******************************************************

LAST REVISED: April 16th, 2001 by Moderator
-!-----------------------------------------

 The WIN2000 - Windows 2000 Support Echo is a community 
 environment for all Windows users, programmers, and operators
 who are looking for Technical assistance, information, and 
 the convergence of Win95-based and NT-based operating
 systems with Windows 2000.

 We do provide discussions on anything that is Windows 2000
 related whether it be BBS questions, compatibility issues,
 or just wanting to discuss the functionality of the operating
 system.  We realize this product is still new and in many
 areas, may not be territory that we're all familar with so
 therefore this echo is to allow anyone who has any questions
 which are directly or indirectly related to Windows 2000 to
 proposes those questions and get their desired responses that
 which they need.

 Currently, this conference is available to all persons even
 if they are programmers, developers, users, or operators of
 Windows 95, 98, NT, or 2000 machines.  The Moderator retains
 the right to close to Conference to SysOps or specific groups
 of individuals without prior notice.

 As moderator, I ask that all SysOps try to monitor messages
 published here by their clients/callers to related topic
 material that pertains to this conference purposes.
