My switchover in Chicago was flawless. I am running NT4. I have heard, but do not know for a fact, that WP will not run with XP. I loved WP but changed to Word some years ago to get output symmatry with Excel for presentation purposes. Word is OK IMHO.

OT re: they have a common, unfixable problem I feel your pain. I've got 3 PCs at home, bought in 2-3 year intervals. They run on Windows 95 ("upgraded" with a glitchy program that's supposed to turn it into Windows 98, a real Frankenstein), Windows 2000, and XP. They all have ethernet cards and are plugged into a hub. My wife and I (8 years of postgrad education between us) can't get them to network, do things like share printers. We're not the types who give up easily, but this has beaten us.
