It's because people say Win2k3 / Win2k8 / Win2k8r2 / Win2k12 a lot as
shorthand for Windows Server 2003 (XP-based), Windows Server 2008 (Vista
based), Windows Server 2008 R2 (Windows 7 based) and Windows Server 2012
(Windows 8 based) respectively.

Win2k is just Windows 2000, the release before Windows XP, released in
December 1999. Needless to say, if it's compatible even as far back as
Win2k it's not going to worry anybody.
