Actually, I find it a more stable system than XP after 2 service packs, tho the needed specialty server related AV and FW software really blows.



I have yet to crash in XP SP2, only had it for six months tho. What type if stability issues are you speaking of?



Also, the MAIN reason that I'm not upgrading is because I'm only running an Athlon 900mhz. XP eats my resources enough as it is.

True that.....



We run 2k3 at work....but at home, my machines have anought issues with 2k and xp, I think I am going to wait till I update hardware before I go to 2k3.... as far as issues with xp I have yet to have a issue with it...Personly I like xp!

2k3 ran smoother, faster, more stable, and with all the extra shit i run on mine. the trick is getting it to look like xp.. ;) and to get sound enabled.. and make it run desktop style and not server style.. when ya figure all that out, man it's smooth.

I run 2K sp2 now and am wondering if its worth upgrading to 2003 server? Do the programs that run on 2K run on 2003? I mean programs like nortons system works 2003, history kill, Ez cd creator 6, and others? Is there a performance difference?

I have to manually vape my stuff from work before I leave every day. I clear my files, cache, ssl slate, history, autocomplete, etc... Don't want www.overgrow.com being in my history grin.
