OK, nice easy quick one for you all. I'm 'debating' with my boss at the moment regarding Windows 2000 Server and the position of domain controllers.
I think I'm right in saying W2K Server doesn't use PDC's and BDC's anymore (a la NT4.0), just DC's.
He doesn't agree and thinks that there's still PDC's/BDC's.
We're talking in the sense of a W2K Server only environment, no NT servers at all - I know you can do the PDC emulation thingy...
Anyone want to back me up here and help me win some beer tokens?

Go on then. Pint of Stella please 
Yep, no PDC/BDC. All known as DC's, you can update any DC and it will replicate the changes to other DC's. In NT4, you always update the PDC.
DC's are equal, but some are more equal than others FSMO roles makes them different
