   A few months back someone gave me an old server with Server2000 as the OS   
      
      
   For the heck of it I went to the Windows update site and was able to   
   install Windows updates that had not been applied by the last user.   
      
      
   So, I'm sure the XP update site will be functional for quite a few more   
   years.
