O.K., fair enough -- but installation is another
matter entirely. NT4 could have problems, but by the
time W2K came along, it was ready to install on just
about anything. It just works -- every time -- with
nary a hiccup. From what I gather, XP has been much
the same.

Contrast that with the eCS install, and the problems
many of us have seen.
