Haven't you seen Microsoft's print ads? See: http://212.113.5.84/content/4/16069.html and http://2kad.net/disp006.html A two-page spread in the 6 Feb 2001 issue of PC Magazine illustrates this (p36-37). It features a picture of a BSOD captioned "If you find yourself missing the downtime, cut out and tape to monitor." The text includes the statement "NSTL test results show that Windows 2000 Professional is 13 times more reliable than Windows 98. Which means users will need far less support." Who am I to argue with Microsoft? <w> Cary Enoch Reinstein aka Enoch's Vision, Inc., Peach County, Georgia http://www.enochsvision.com/, http://www.bahaivision.com/ -- "Behind all these manifestations is the one radiance, which shines through all things.
