RC1 was the last public one.... There is rumors that they distributed production 2000 to some bigger clients that had relied on NT for the Alpha... I can tell you SQL 6.5 & 7 was popular on the Alpha in some big banks & web sites at the time....

And of course, the Alpha was the basis for the 64bit build of Windows, however neither of these have been 'leaked' ..... 2000 Rc1 is as good as it'll get. It's somewhere on here ....

WinBetaX from YouTube has it.

The RC1 is available on the FTP (Pro, Pro checked and Server). There was also an Advanced Server version leaked.

I have uploaded 2000 Server Beta 3 (Alpha) for RaF, but until now, there's no news from mrpijey about it. :(

OK, I checked it, they're are labeled beta2 on the FTP. I must have obtained Beta3/RC1 somewhere else.

Yes, because I posted it to confirm what you said :) (like on wiki - it's good to link to references).

I would recommend installing NT 4 first, then starting the 2000 install from within 4.0
