[PCB_FORUM] Re: OT operating system

Hi Patrick,
         I use XP Pro, but you'll have to update any machines that are 
networked to it. There are a couple of patches from Microsoft, or on your XP 
CD. There is also a protocol in Win2K that isn't supported by XP. I can't think 
of the name now (maybe BAWI). I got it to work, ping licenses, etc., but my fix 
isn't supported, and I lose the server once in a while. I haven't figured out 
how to print reliably yet. Had it, and lost it. Someone else can probably shed 
more light on it. I can write to a PDF okay, so can print from somewhere else. 
Otherwise, I really like XP. This is on a laptop, so portability and security 
is the real issue. Bottom line, it depends on what your network requirement is.

        For a new system, any strong feelings between W2K and XP Pro for 
Allegro?
