Not quite.  There seems to be at least one extra step.  With XP, you have to
call up a menu and select 'mark' before selecting.  I can't recall at the
moment whether you have to do menu selctions to paste at the insertion point.
In 2K, you can select text by dragging.  If there is text selected, a
right-click copies to the clipboard.  If no text is selected, a right-click
pastes at the insertion point.  It makes for a pretty smooth flow.  The flow in
XP is much more choppy.
