Did try Autopatcher. And nLite for that matter. And XP. And XP MCE. And MCE 2K5. And XP Embedded. And Svr 2K3. I even use XP and Svr 2k3 every day at work.

I just think it would be kinda cute to have an almost bugfree MS OS running "out of the box" - and 2000 have been around for so long, that most bugs have been reported and fixed. I don't wanna tweak it, break security catalogs, or anything like that - and integrating 160 hotfixes the documented way requires a DVD and several weeks of work to do a manual slipstream. Not many hotfixes (except for most security fixes) support /integrate - only 10% or so.

PS - Autopatcher (or nLite) don't work for most of the hotfixes that are not available for direct download.
