Saying Windows is unstable shows no lack of understanding. It is a fact. At least a fact for me. I try to keep my Win2000 as stable as possible, but since the kernel now contains fun things like *video* (not in the original plans for this "New Technology"), I must reboot at least once a week or face the possibility of system failure (video flakes, Windohs Exploder explodes and/or memory leaks, etc. -- sans BSOD). I reluctantly run some Oracle products on this machine for now. We are in the process of moving OMS and Names to a Linux box for stability.
And the "baggage of WindowsNT" as you put it must be carried forward at least until Windohs2000 stops being "built using NT technology", whatever the hell that means.

Since moving to a clustered environment on our Test, Beta and Production systems over 18 months ago we have had 0 ( Zero ) outages due to Windows. in fact I have yet to see a BSOD on over 20 database servers since going to Windows2000. Saying Windows is unstable shows a lack of understanding of what Windows2000 is today. Carrying the baggage of WindowsNT forward is a disservice. I say go for it. In fact we will be moving to 9i RAC by the end of this year and we are planning on using Windows as our Oracle platform. -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Jesse, Rich INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
