Windows 2000 Support

There's been a reply on Bugtraq regarding an updated version of HP System Management Homepage for Windows. The author simply asked "Where is the patch for Windows 2000?". The thing is, HP haven't claimed to support Windows 2000 since February 2008. The last version that claimed to support Windows 2000 was 2.1.10.186 (C) that was released in January 2008. I'm hoping that the reply was tongue in cheek (it probably was), otherwise the author is over a year behind on their patches.

I could argue that HP not officially supporting 2000 is a bad thing, but Windows 2000 is in Extended Support (and has been for four years) and is several versions behind the latest Server OS from Microsoft (note: Windows Server 2008 R2 will be x64 only!). But I wouldn't be surprised if you can install the latest version on Windows 2000 anyway.

I still think people should move to Windows 2008 though.
