ActiveWin -- Microsoft Project 2000

This new milestone of Microsoft Project is a major release that really brings a lot of long awaited enhancements. The fact that Microsoft Project 2000 uses exactly the same interface (absolutely no difference) than other Microsoft Office 2000 is a gage of integration and homogeneity. Microsoft Project Central is really the ultimate companion for Project users and is packed full of features users haven�t even dreamt of yet. The only problem is that it requires NT4 SP3 or greater and IIS: if you haven't got this environment you won't be able to use it. With Project 2000, Microsoft will surely extend its user base with many new users because of this software�s unprecedented ease of use. Finally Microsoft Project 2000 is really state of the art project management software that leaves other competing software solutions in the dust!
