Amazing PC prices

Firstly, XP is 32bit, and they also do a 64bit version.I doubt its any faster for production use at all. I run it on a server I have here at home. Its loaded with more features for networking and administration. Plus you cannot use 32gig of ram in the 32bit version. You can use up to 128gig of ram in XP 64. I have an XP 32bit machine here and it boots up in 14 secs, and shuts down in 5. It all deppends on how well you strip down and optimise your O/S. Personally i wouldnt reccomend 2003 for production, plus the licence for it costs a bomb.

all you say its true and i know that , i use microsoft products sinze 1986 , and now i use linux and mac too


see this:

i have Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition

all tweeked to act like windows XP ( 5 seconds or less to boot , and 1 or 2 to shutdow on a old P4 3200mhz + 2GB ram dualchannel) and only waste 80mb ram without antivirus installed


THIS IS FROM MICROSOFT SITE check if you not beleave:

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Enterprise Edition RAM SPECS

"64 GB maximum for x86-based computers; 2 TB maximum for x64 and ia64 computers"


Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition (standard version) RAM SPECS

"32 GB for x86-based PCs with the 32-bit version and 64 GB for Itanium-based PCs with the 64-bit version"

Try and get more than 4 gig of ram to work on your system without having multiple processors. A sinlge cpu cannot address more than 4 gig in 32bit.
