Klaus - Hmmm.. don't you mean SGI's new OS? No. 6.5 is much closer than an NT product, AFAICT. I hope you're not long on a company you believe is migrating to an OS that "crashes or hangs every other time I try to use it" SGI isn't 'migrating' to NT, we're going to build an additional product that uses NT. NT is not a replacement for Irix. Remember guys, when you slam NT today, you're slamming SGI. Not today. Not tomorrow. Never. Is slamming NT the same as slamming HP, Compaq, Dell, or IBM? Slamming the NT box SGI builds may be slamming SGI, but slamming NT certainly isn't. SGI isn't building an NT box because the performance is good, it has good technology, or it is really stable. We're building a NT box because people are buying it, despite it's shortcomings. Good luck to you all. Sounds like you may need it. You and Paul should go bowling. -justinb
