Not really. Buy where you get the best price.

When you're into professional page layout/design.

That's too much for a few lines. Suffice it to say that, for your 
purposes, TT is a good option. However, an even better option is OTF (I 
can't remember if Win 2k recognizes OTF fonts -- you must check this 
out), so buy those if they have them.

Yes.

Windows TrueType or OpenType.
