[Quoted] Just my 2c; I cannot see W2K as production platform... "Oops! new patch ^H^H^H^H^H service pack needed, new security breach plugged", OK, OK, sure, download and install... "Done, please reboot" No way - this is production!

Get the picture?

And my iAS and databases on Linux outperform the ones installed on NT, and W2K - same hardware, same db/iAS versions. Just the OS changed. Correction; Linux has to run in 386k memory, where W2K had 512k.
