Running SAP on Win2K, user base about 2000, concurrent users about 300, concurrent db connections (since SAP pools them) about 100.

No problems - runs an absolute treat.

The real importance is the gear you buy. I have no doubt that if we were running Unix on the gear we've got, it would probably be faster, but the Win2k has been up since about July - no reboots, crashes
