(was many other threads...) Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Quote from a friend who is an NT admin... In response to David's comments on NT 'advances' in Service Packs.... This is nuts. Anyway, I think NT is stable when it comes to programs, but when the system goes down, it goes down hard. The other day, I installed a new server, which had nothing on it but NT4.0 and service pack 4. The company came out to install the banks software, and it crashed (bug checked) TWICE just during the FILE COPY!!! I mean, come on. How the heck can you norrow down what caused that? No, the more I use NT, the more I hate it. Even from the very limited use of win2000, I think it will be much better.
