| I have heard that there was an issue if you were making use of AWE memory; we don't. We have it installed on a number of development boxes (not Production yet) and have had no issues come up.You can get the complete release notes from the MS download site. Review this for content and see what advantages it has for you. We try to stay as current as possible with the patches and service packs.HTH=================================================================The most tyrannical of governments are those which make crimes of opinions, for everyone has an inalienable right to his thoughts. -Baruch Spinoza, philosopher (1632-1677) |
