He is right in that exchange / notes will increase productivity in the

Windows 2003 is a good product, a fairly stable product but I wouldnt
dream of sticking it in where we have *bsd and linux machines .. for one

of our machines are quad xeons which require HIGHMEM patches for the
amount of RAM they have).
