Using Outlook as my e-mail software, and having two PC's on a home
service, fequently I transfer my mail deemed saving to my Desktop PC
(from this laptop), as that unit has a very large hard drive. Today
I attempted to export .pst files from Outlook 2007 to my other PC
which is running Outlook 2000. I use a USB 2G removable Drive to
accomplish this. When I completed the task of Exporting 2007 .pst
files to the USB drive (which took an excessive amount of time), I
then attempted to Import them to the 2000 system, and obtained a
warning about the files are not compatible. How can I save e-mails
from 2007 to my other system?

I don't know if Outlook 2007 supports ANSI format PSTs, but if it does, you'll need to use that form of the PST to move your data. By the way, never export from or import to a PST. There's no need and you lose data.
