I've been running WIN2K PRO on a Dell 330 Precision Workstation for over 3 
years.  1GB RAM & 170+ GB 10,000 RPM SCSI drives.  My hi-end audio 
production stuff does NOT like XP ;-(   This is not my logging computer, 
thank God.

In spite updated Service Packs,  Norton Anti-Virus & a Firewall, I got 
busted into and 961 files infected just for starters.  Regardless of 
operating systems, until we get the diddly squat losers in Washington 
replaced by tough Ham/Net-Smart Contester types to implement some KB 
legislation & empower law enforcement, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER connect your 
logging computer to the Internet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   My solution for virus 
proliferators has been (for years) to Castrate the b*st*rds.
