[Kenn Caesius]

I suppose that in more detail, I would like to know what manufacturer
or what specific wireless adapter do you recommend for Windows 2000
Pro. with Service Pack 4

If works in XP, should be compatible with 2k.

Not necessarily so: what price IE7, Safari, Chrome? Although in
principle the fact that W2k is v5.0 and XP is v5.1 damned well OUGHT
to make your statement true, I suspect the sad fact is that many OEM's
no longer test in W2k since it went end-of-life, and rather than risk
their product unexpectedly not working, they just program the
installer to fail on any version earlier than XP.

The device driver level
is different from the
app incompatibility you
describe -- for the most
part, Win2K device
drivers will work under
XP, not quite as sure
about vice-versa, though.

When I go to the driver download page for my now aging Dell Latitude
610, the dowloads for XP and 2k are noticeably different.

And it was the vice-versa claim that I was particularly questioning,
of course.
