The latest and greatest ... I belive Win2k 1.04.00 and tools.

I'm sure that others may have mentioned this but I find this feature to be a geeks dream. The ability to run concurrent logon sessions simular to concurrent UNIX sessions. Also built in remote control, and more advanced wizards which allows home users to work with the system without the learning curve of NT.

I agree, are they using intel chipsets? AGP or PCI? I wonder if its possible that the API calls in XP are slightly different than Win2k. Perhaps enough to cause certain combos like VIA chipsets and 3dfx chipsets to blow up with certain driver versions. I've seen the same "side effects" with certain software titles that don't play well together.

I have a WAN that runs on a dedicated 56K line. Since I'm going to frame, I had a company hook up a smart jack and I installed a new CSU. Router to Router on the 56K line I get pings of 30ms. Through the frame connection, router to router I get 130ms. I was told by the provider that a fatter pipe will cause higher pings. I find this difficult to believe. True?
