What was he comparing it with? This sort of data that you are talking about doesn't jive with what I have read in the press.

As exciting as tech talk is, watching INTC getting clipped in AH is a comforting sight. Btw, 98 blows completely. NT is stable as all hell if configured properly, but doesn't adapt well to new apps or new hardware. Windows 2000 Pro is fantastic (once again, if configured properly), and handles the newer hardware. If you do have sufficient hardware (500Mhz+, 256Mg RAM+), go with XP Pro. Not the home edition, but Pro. Turn off the stupid 'Don't worry, let me do that for you features', and you'll be ok. Revert everything to classic interface, update the OS through Windowsupdate, and it runs very nicely. I believe my XP machine at home has been up and running for 64 days without an issue. Now, I could really use INTC dropping below 22. Ain't gonna happen, but it would be nice. Luc... Myth, anyone... make it happen. There's a 24 in it for you.
