Strange. I've been running umpteen types of server (including SlimServer) on XP Pro at home for a long time and find it absolutely rock solid. Never a problem, never a crash. I am also a partner in a web hosting business. We used to run FreeBSD exclusively but in recent years have included Windows 2003 servers. We've had virtually no problems with these either and doing almost anything on them is so much less of a headache then trying to do a similar think with *nix. BTW, I'm not upset, just bemused. MC
