We regret to announce that Windows 2000 will no longer be supported in Myst Online: Uru Live beginning with our next beta release on 10-19 2006.
Microsoft has recently dropped support for Windows 2000, and that factor along with a number of other issues have forced us to make this tough call. We do realize that GameTap supports Windows 2000, and that some of our current beta testers are using Windows 2000. We're sorry for any inconvenience this will cause, and please be assured that we are not making this decision lightly.
We value our fans and our testers and we hope that those who are affected by this decision will be able to upgrade to Windows XP and continue their Myst Online: Uru Live experience.
Thanks so much,
Cyan Worlds

Subject: Whooops!
We've mystcommunicated!
Several of our knowledgable fans have pointed out that Microsoft does still support Windows 2000 - for a price. Thank you for adding that additional piece of information and for correcting us on that matter. Perhaps if that were the only obstacle between Myst Online and Windows 2000, we could find the additional budget needed to cover that cost. However, the other factors we alluded to - some beyond our control - still prevent Myst Online: Uru Live from working on Windows 2000, so I'm afraid our position in this new light is no better. Windows 2000 will not be supported in Myst Online: Uru Live.
We truly hope that Windows 2000 users can still find a way to upgrade and join us in the cavern.
Once again, sorry for the inaccurate information.
Sincerely,
Cyan Worlds
