power and stability. Tools that increase the system's ease of use,
such as enhanced configuration and setup wizards and advanced
security and encryption settings, also enable you to work more

The Windows 2000 Professional operating system takes full
advantage of the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface
(ACPI) specification. ACPI is a scheme to optimize power usage
in portable computers. When used with an ACPI-enabled system,
like your notebook computer, Windows 2000 Professional
provides features such as: Plug and Play, hot swapping, and power
management which helps maximize the time you can run the
computer on battery power.
