For Photo applications there are two main advantages in using W2K:
1) Dual processor boards are supported, i.e. both processors are actually
used!
2) It will use as much RAM as you can pack on a board. Windows 98 and ME
can't really use more RAM than about 256M effectively, but W2K can go all
the way :-)
