I'm using Vista Ultimate on my server only, does a decent job. FTP runs OK. Does it's job well. My only main complaint is I do have SW on my main box I do not care to loose so putting it there for now is not a option. I have not run MS's diagnostic yet though. Some of this stuff may work if I do a upgrade but I would prefer a clean but then the problems with some of my sw would surface. FWIW the first release was more of a hog then the final release which seems to adjust itself. My server is only a 2400 Barton with 1 gb of ram and a fx5900 video card and it runs fine. Only have Vista Business final so I will have to clean install my server which is still RC2. In all their wisdom that is what MS sent me.
