160492 2003-07-17 05:13:00 Hello every one

The other day one of my friends was asking me about Windows 2003 server.

so I am just wording if any one here know any thing about it or if any one had any problems with it e.g. like network problems / issues.

160494 2003-07-17 05:51:00 As with any new Microsoft Products, wait until it has been out for at least 6-8 months before purchasing/using, because then if there are any major problems with it there should be a fix available!! CYaBro (73)
160495 2003-07-17 09:19:00 I used it for a while, previewing rc 1 and 2...

It didnt like any of my ISA NIC's which sucked..

Was fast though... very fast...

But driver support for soundcards and graphics cards was minimal (Probably coz its meant to be a server and not a Desktop OS.. go figure ;-))

I agree about waiting 6-8 months though ;-)

160498 2003-07-20 23:04:00 I have it installed on 2 machines. One is a lowely P3 at 500Mhz with 256MB ram and it run fine on their.

It is very stable even though it is still only in a beta version that I got as part of the Office 2003 beta I am testing.
