Well, for one - -sooner or later - there will be no official support (tech/updates etc) for 9x and NT4. That's not going to happen tomorrow - but it will 2. Some people have begun to code applications/websites that will not function properly with a 9x or NT4.0 box 3. I don't know how large/small a shop you work in but remote help in XP Pro can save you (or your helpdesk people) going to your individual users workstations to help them with an issue they are having with their system.
Just my two cents -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of George Arezina Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 7:56 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [ActiveDir] Legacy Computers in AD I have a mixed mode of computers in my current domain (Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0 workstations). We are planning to upgrade to W2K/W3K, still not sure with which Windows server version to go with, and need to know what is gained by upgrading my clients to W2K Pro or XP Pro. What is the benefit to upgrading all my clients' comps to W2K Pro/XP Pro as opposed to leaving my current comps with legacy software?
