I am far from a MicroSloth fan, but all major software has lots of bugs. The 63K error rate for Windows 2000 is pretty steep until you consider how large Windows 2000 is- the point is that MS found that many almost before they shipped using some sort of automagic testing system and announced it: that in itself is a first at MS.

Good as SAS is about bugs, SAS has it's share even as we speak.... Just look at the usage notes....

I am running Windows 2000 on one of my servers (not by choice- but that is another story). It so far has been as reliable as Win NT 4.0 sp6. I have it squawking back and forth to my Linux server and other workstations. I do not have SAS running on it ($$$). Like most MS products it is bigger then it's predecessors. Lots more features....

My two gripes are it is still somewhat driver poor and it has once again reorganized where user profiles and such are (sigh).

If you must run Windows 2000 wait for the second service pack is out. You will sleep better.
