We have migrated about 10 people to XP and they complain that the "network is slower". Whatever that means....
It appears to me that it takes a considerably longer time for them to save a network based file. Such as an Excel file. In 98 they could save it in about 1 second. Now it takes 10....and I am clueless as to why. -----Original Message----- From: Ed Esgro [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2002 5:57 AM To: NT 2000 Discussions Subject: RE: Migrate workstation to Win2k or WinWP Pro It's cooler. :) I like that reason. Call me crazy, but I personally like 2000 better then XP as far as stability. XP has been phenomenal at finding new hardware and installing it. I find XP to be a little buggy still. Ever since my change over, I noticed apps freezing at times. But again I can't complain about the boot time XP has. I was incredibly impressed at how fast XP boots up. Driver rollback option, recovery is incredibly simple with XP. Remote desktop connection in XP is really slick. I think it's better then Terminal Services You should try them both out. Maybe do some bench marks on things that are important to your company. I think you will find that they both have pluses and minuses, just a matter of what is important to you. -----Original Message----- From: Andrew S.
