Re: XP vs Win2000 Pro

[pnelson@xxxxxxxxxx]

I have not had any issues with XP, except for the occasional times when 
Notes will lock everything up for a while. For the times when I kill it 
with task manager, I use ZapNotes to flush the memory. W2K Pro had the 
same problems.

For some reason, I can't get WDSC CD's that worked fine on 2K to load on 
XP. I'm waiting for the main office to ship me new CD's that they verify 
will work.

I am getting a new PC at work.  The tech's latest rage is putting on XP. 
However I've been given the option of remaining on Win2000 Pro.

My typical workload will have:
Five 5250 sessions open
Notes R6 Client and Administrator
5 or 6 browser sessions
iSeries Navigator
WDSC and/or Code/400
Excel
Word
My 'tray' includes:
TrendMicro Office Scan Corporate Edition
Sametime
Desktop Weather by The Weather Channel
Code Communication Daemon
IBM Community Tools

Based on this, should I care one way or the other which I run?  And why?

I ask this on this list to primarily see if any of these products, 
(especially iSeries ones) have "issues" with XP.
