John, I have been running W2000 Pro workstation build 2128 for a few weeks now and it is very reliable. The only significant bug I have come across is intermittent failure to hang up USB ISDN connections. Sounds like you're doing some good beta work for us all. Your experience with W2000 so far sounds pretty good. My ignorance here, but do you get a bug list (Intel calls it errata for their pre-production releases) along with a pre-production SW copy of something like W2000? Reason I ask is you mention the USB ISDN and some other problems. Nice to know about them in advance. I am running a 333 MHz Celeron on a Supermicro P6SBA with 327 Mbyte of PC100 SDRAM at 66MHz. It also runs fine with 128 Mbyte ram, but 64Mbyte is not enough to avoid slow running. Have you tried a faster CPU? Would that make any difference, or do you know? Let the Microsoft thread know of your experiences, if you have time, and best of luck with Rambus stock. Tony
