>An excellent point. IMO, "stellar" software is that which does the job and is completely reliable. Bonus if it can be reconfigured or modified as your needs change. On that basis, there sure isn't a lot out there. A fair bit comes close, though.

>For many small businesses needing simple file and printer sharing, Novell NetWare 3.12/3.2 is a truly stellar product. Personally, I run NT 3.51 SP5 as my desktop; it's crashed 7 times in just over 4 years of fairly intense development use - 3 of those were due to a failed CPU fan. It'll be retired soon, but it's been stellar for me.
In that regard, Windows 2K has been "stellar" for me for the last few months. It just keeps on keepin on!
