Mark Minasi on NT 4.0 -- hold 'em or fold 'em?
It's the beginning of the end for Windows NT. Or at least Microsoft says so. But in the wake of the release of Windows Server 2003 -- and with nearly half of the installed enterprise Windows base still running NT4 -- we asked supreme Alpha geek Mark Minasi to share his views on when an operating system as popular as NT 4.0 truly becomes obsolete. Hear Minasi discuss how to decide when -- or if -- to leave NT 4.0; the security hole that might just FORCE you to leave NT 4.0; and pointers for making upgrades cheaper and easier (if you decide to move).
