there are torrents out there for media center edition (of course torrents arent allowed so that means that ill need to email the torrent link to u lol)

ive had no issues with server 2003 enterprise (altho im not running 8 cpus: just 1 [technically 2]) when it came to anything lol

your running windows 2003? is it good? is it worth me using as my os in place of xp?

also, what are your sepcs?

[ObiWan]

its probably not worth using it instead of xp because it has been optimised and designed for server use and not home PCs

[Robert00000]

servers are only really useful for connecting many pc&#39;s together, whether in an office of through the net (web server) for sharing resources.

They are not meant for single PC&#39;s. stick with xp.

No for home & office and general desktop use , stick with WINDOWS XP.


if your running datacentres & webservers get win 03.
