what is the difference between windows 2000 and ME? doesn't ME stand for millenium edition and isn't the last millenium the year 2000? so did microsoft release two OS's that year?

Windows 2000 was actually going to be called Windows NT5 but they named it 2000 for marketing reasons. So 2000 is more of a business type environment operating system whereas ME is for home use.
