    What about SPs?
    -Updates are OS fixes that M$ publish, on the 2nd tuesday every month, on "patch-tuesday".
    -After a long range of updates M$ select them together in an SP.
    -SPs, Service Packs, are major collections of updates that M$ publish.
    -SPs are cumulative so "the last SP+all critical M$ Updates after that" is enough to install in order to have your OS up-to-date (unless you are, like me, stuck with wxpmce driverCDs that are not accepted by wxp SP3)
    -SPs are OS specific and can NOT be used else where

    If you upgrade to w2k you:
    -gain system stablilty!
    -maintain system speed!
    -will be able to use older as well as newer applications!
    -can install the latest SP4 + all critical updates thereafter!
    -then your system will be up-to-date!

    Hint:
    Comodo AntiVirus v2.0.17.58 Beta
    COMODO Firewall Pro v2.4.18.184

    are free and good performing with w2k!
