Different interface
The windows, bars, menus, etc. look different
Different file system
Windows XP uses a NTFS file system while Windows 2000 uses a FAT file system
Different functions
Windows XP was created with personal computer in mind, while Windows 2000 was more focused towards networks.
There are other differences but basically this is it...

gigantic difference in appearance
the file system is relatively the same (NTFS) both are based on Windows NT. but the GUI on XP was completely revamped -- wanna see a difference ? enable the old-school grfx in XP desktop and it will look like Win 2K
as far as anything else -- Win 2000 is much more stable, and overall prob. a better OS, but XP does alot of things automatically where Win2000 doesnt. XP is much more "user friendly"

WindowsXP seems to be pretty bug-free and is fast. If you have Win2000 you might want to consider upgrading because it won't be too long when MS will no longer support it. MS has already stopped all support and upgrades for Win98.
