Not likely to cause any financial damage to Microsoft
A logo is very safe territory
Wikipedia is a non-profit organisation, downstream providers who are not non-profit will need to consider whether they will take the risk in using this image
Clearly used for educational use to illustrate the Windows 2000 logo
