Re: [Other] WinXP server 2k3 questions
Inertnet Exploder is still tightly integrated with Server 2K3, so no worries there and I have had no problems running Nero with 2K3 either.
My question would be, why do you feel the need to run an Enterprise-level server operating system?
There's really nothing in Server 2K3 that isn't available in XP, as far as an end user would need.

Randy

Really only when you're talking about memory in the >2GB range.
XP handles up to 2GB of RAM quite well, it's only above that threshold that 2K3 has an advantage.
There are so many unneeded services running with a server OS that most end users are only going to end up creating another unintentional zombie system for the script kiddies to co-opt and that isn't such a good thing for the Internet community as a whole, is it?
Granted, 2K3 is *more* secure out of the box than 2K, but there are still gaping holes that can be exploited by any dipstick that probes the system in question.

Randy
