| What ever happened to being able to login with the Remote Desktop Connection while someone else was still logged onto the PC locally? Wasnt that supposed to be part of SP2? |

I've had blue screens on 2k, but the only blue screens I've ever had on XP were a result of failing hardware. (RAM)
Win2k3 has never blue screened on me. |

| Well, I would love to continue my SP2 beta testing but I am now going on over 1 month without my own computer due to a certain crappy hardware store. |

| using XP Pro with SP2 v. 2149 seem to be working fine for me. added bonus SP2 seems much faster than the multiply patched SP1. any body else had this experience? |

So much for blaming the Akmai outage on the linux kernel, or blaming spam on compromised sendmail boxes run by skript kiddies at home:
http://news.com.com/%27Zombie%27+PCs+caused+Web+outage%2C+Akamai+says/2100-1038_3-5236403.html?tag=nl "The attack that blacked out Google, Yahoo and other major Web sites earlier this week involved the use of a "bot net"--a large network of zombified home PCs--Internet infrastructure provider Akamai Technologies said Wednesday." |

| #6 Try using HP Servers with Win2K3, they seem to generate BSODs quite frequently. Seems the HP drivers aren't up to snuff. |
