Other uses for Win2k

So, for various (32-bit drivers) reasons, I dug out my old Win2kSP4 CD, and now have a couple VMs running it on my Win7 desktop.

Besides the hardware compatibility thing, is there anything cool/fun I can do with Win2k? Some feature that was removed from later Windows versions? Better DOS compatibility? Stuff like that?

I use it for vms running old software. It's nice because there's no activation nonsense. I can use the same key over and over, and don't have to explain myself to MS every time.

That, and it's also very lightweight. Even XP is quite heavy compared to it.
