The beta, I believe, has been rock solid for about a year now. I believe the open issues have been inadequacies of such things as drivers etc., software provided by hardware vendors...and security issues.

cruzbay, Running risk analysis using Monte Carlo is not exactly managing 60 billion. It just gives you an assesment where you stand under number of different scenarios. BTW, it seems that all they are doing is using the same 32 bit apps, but under Windows AMD64, which gives the app full 4 GB of address space, as opposed to a fraction of it. It would have been even more interesting if the software they use was converted to a full 64 bit app, which, I am sure the vendor is working on as we speak. Joe
