Re: [Other] WinXP server 2k3 questions

2k3 has better memory management then xp
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.
