- windows 2000 licensing
- Posted by Brijesh on September 1st, 2003
I have some doubts and would like to get clarified the
same.
1) is it true that Microsoft has stopped selling windows
2000 products (like win 2000 prof., 2000 sever and adv
server.
2) is it possible and legal to purchase win 2000 servers
by purchasing the license of win 2003 enterprise edition
for the same.

Sorry Paul, but you are incorrect.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserv...downgrade.mspx
Microsoft grants the rights to use any prior version of Windows Server
2003 in place of the version specified on the license confirmation,
regardless of which channel was used to acquire the license.
Windows Server 2003 licenses can be downgraded to use or access older
versions of the corresponding licenses as outlined below. Locate the
product in the left column. Read horizontally for available downgrade
options.
