I'm saying that the message in Compuserve sounded very similar to the post
you mentioned, except that the one in Compuserve had extra information,
namely, that the advice was for a person who wanted to study for W2000
certification.

As your other replies said, there is no problem using XP Pro workstations
in a W2000 domain. I was jumping to the conclusion that the advice you read
was actually referring to the reasonably common situation where someone
wants to undertake W2000 certification. They get the evaluation Windows
2000 Advanced Server CD from Microsoft and install it on a couple of
computers. Then they wonder if they should use XP Pro or Windows 2000
Professional on workstations. IMHO they should use W2000, just like the
advice you saw.
