AFAIK It looks like djgpp programs will not run properly, although I am
certain that people are going to write dos emulaters for windows. 
There is one in the RSXNTDJ distribution, but I don't think it runs
dos programs properly yet.
	You can also make a dos boot disk so you can boot into dos
as much as you like. This is going to be a problem for people who buy 
computers new with windows 2000 installed, so I think we might need to
put a dos boot disk zip using the free dos OS on the djgpp website.

Comments anyone? (Tell me that I'm totally wrong and win2000 not running dos
programs, and the support is going to be like NT's)

P.S A few corrections of your English (As you asked for them)
