>We have clients that run both NT and Win9x stations. The Win NT do seem to be more stable in general, but they have their share of problems. As to switching to Windows 2K, we probably will as we implement a client-server solution, but this won't occur for a while.

shawn,

That's been my experience with the release candidate beta and, from what I've heard it's true with the release as well. Stability was the first priority in the design. It was stated in an issue of the MSDN news that when confronted with a choice between stability and backward compatibility, the former was always chosen. It also puts an end to (hopefully once and for all) "DLL Hell". It won't allow DLLs to be overwritten, but does allow for side-by-side DLLs. IOW, if an application requires a certain version of a DLL it can install it and use it (just not in the System directory).
