My sense is that NT5 is in at least as good a shape as any of the others were at this stage of development.

I'm glad that you haven't had too many problems. I suggest you may be in a minority, however.

May I direct you to the following article:
www2.computerworld.com

Here's some choice lines:

Nine Fortune 1,000 shops last week reported that they have experienced far more than the usual problems associated with beta software.

''I finally gave up, stripped it off my machine and reinstalled Windows NT 4.0. I'm very disappointed. I've installed many betas, and I don't expect them to be problem-free, but this is the most dysfunctional beta of the Windows NT operating system that I've experienced,''


In response to your assumption-- no, I have no position in Novell. Nor Microsoft for that matter.
