Hee Hee Hee. Put that Microsoft sales brochure down, Ed. ;-) ;-)

No, it just corrupts your FAT and you have to reinstall the whole OS. ;-)

Things are never what they seem when they are delivered from Microshaft. :-(

But seriously, I've been working with NT for quite a while and have generally
found it a good OS. I recently installed NT 4.0 Workstation at home and I am
having more problems with it than I ever had with win95.

Cheers.

Other than cost $, maybe we should forget about "...enhancements to win 95/97...
"
win NT 4.0 workstation/server is the way to go for PCs.

NT 4.0, form the creator of the DIGITAL'S VMS O/S now at Microsoft,
is a 'real' protected o/s. Gone are the win 95 systems crashes.
In NT if a particular application does crash it actually can be reloaded
without rebooting the entire system.
