I would recommend a Windows computer, not a Mac. This is because most people prefer Windows. Secondly, if you use Windows XP, use Professional. If Windows 7, use Professional. Windows 7 would be the best choice. Also, use Intel processors since they are surprisingly fast.
If you plan to dual-boot between Windows 2000 and any previous MS OS, the boot drive must be formatted with a file system compatible with both operating systems. Any drive that Windows 9x needs must use the FAT file system. The drive can only be on the first primary partition or in a logical drive in an extended partition. All other drives and partitions will be unavailable when one of the other Os's is active.
Windows 2000 supports FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS partitions.
The Windows 2000 Professional operating system was released in February 2000 as the business compliment to the Windows Me operating system that was designed for home computers. While a number of security professionals continue to tout the Windows 2000 Professional operating system as the most stable operating system for basic networking available, it is not without some serious security flaws that all users should be aware of if they are installing Windows 2000 Professional for the first time. Thankfully, Microsoft still offers updates on patches that take care of these security flaws that can easily be downloaded an put into place. Windows 2000 Professional is still a very useful operating system for certain applications and can be purchased at a very affordable rate. Let’s take a look at a couple of the basic features that made the Windows 2000 Professional operating system so popular. When Windows 2000 Professional first appeared on the market, it offered a number of unique features and updates that helped business professionals and network administrators do a few things that were either difficult or impossible to do on previous versions of Windows. Amongst the most popular and memorable improvements offered by Windows 2000 Professional was the introduction of the Plug and Play feature. Plug and Play allows users to connect hardware to their computer and begin to use it immediately so long as Windows has access to an appropriate driver. Before Plug and Play was introduced by Windows 2000 Professional, users typically had to have all of the hardware that they were planning on using already connected before they turned on their computer and often had manually install a number of inconvenient drivers for simple input devices. The other primary reason that the Windows 2000 Professional was so popular in the workplace is that it was the first Windows operating system to introduce a strong encryption filing system. The encryption filing system allowed computer users and networking professionals to apply system-level encryption to their computers so that personal and business information was as highly protected as possible. This security feature protected a computer’s filing system with a file encryption key that allowed approved users to access protected files without wasting a computer’s resources.
