Just a heads up on Win2000.  If you were to go to Microsoft.Public.Win2000.Setup_Upgrade and see the number of problems with the installation of SP4 (the latest), you wouldn't install it.  The problems are to many to enumerate and it is too early to speculate whether this is an anomoly on machines that were upgraded as opposed to virgin installs or whatever, but it seems for the last couple of weeks, half the posts are SP4 problems.

I know I am out bonds, but the good old days was not Win 98 it was DOS 6.22 the last stable operating environment,  and as far as the exact science  I still miss the day when I counted lines and character to exactly fit my report on the page I wanted, not just approx the way I want it, but then again I realize dinosaurs are extinct, So from now on I will say 7.0 on XP are the good old days


Gunnar,

I must agree on DOS 6.22, but I've found Win2000 to be as stable,  at least IMHO. I haven't moved to XP yet, but maybe on SP 2 or 3 <g> And Win2000 fails MUCH more gracefully than DOS did.

I don't have to use the 3 fingered DOS salute (Cntl-Alt-Del) NEAR as often as I did with in the good old days. Seems the good old days aren't as good as they seemed, we just seem to forget how DOS used to flog us <g>
