Only you personally can answer this. Win2K isn’t as gaming focused as Win9x or WinXP, so it tends to be less interesting to most people. The real pros of Win2K would be very stable, lightweight, and supports more than one core. I would use it on early dual cpu systems, where even like 2 cpus at 300mhz might struggle with XP Pro. I’ve also been impressed with Win2K on atom based systems although finding drivers can be challenging.
Check out DOSBox Distro:

a lightweight Linux distro (tinycore) which boots off a usb flash drive and goes straight to DOSBox.
