I was thinking more along the lines of stablity than speed (NT is
faster on the typical app, but the difference is not major)--with NT
you should be able to recover from a crash without rebooting.
NT also requires 32 megs more memory than 98 for comparable
performance--you don't say how much you were using, but if memory is
stressed the disk will thrash and you won't see a performance gain
over 98.
I hasten to add that I haven't tried 2000i on either OS, and probably
won't after what I've read here.
