I am grateful for all your comments. As a state university we have a
committee for everything particualary I participate on a technology
recommendation committee. Before XP was shipped at the beginning of fall
2001 we proposed to forego on XP for at least one year. My motivations at
the time were based on the licensing debauchle and a wait-and-see approach.
In my small division of about 100 users I was comfortably upgrading to w2k
and thought this was the best I'd seen from Microsoft (tongue in cheek).
Since then, some have asked when they get XP. My thought has been "when you
buy your next home computer"...

Your comments support my claim that there is no reason to upgrade from W2k
at least not now. Thank you.

Paul

XP needs more horsepower to run than 2000.  I run 2000 Pro on PCs with at
least 233Mhz and 128 RAM and have tested XP on 350 Mhz OK.  I run XP on the
new 700 Mhz 128 RAM PCs here, which are my fastest (we are a public school).
My older 700 Mhz 2000 Pro PCs will be upgraded to XP this summer when I
reimage them.  In my CADD lab I will probably go to 256 MEG RAM.

Users I have switched from 2000 to XP PCs have liked the new interface.

I only wish XP had Explorer 5.5 instead of 6.
