Thanks Brian. As you can see Mark Bohlsen my questions were relevant because
it helped you to explain what you wanted to do

Your question was completely irrelevant and you don't have the faintest
idea as to what is being discussed in this thread.

and Paul has given his
thoughts

I did not give my thoughts, I answered the question.

and now clearer heads prevail again with Brian Komar whose response
is clear cut and shows that unless you have Enterprise or Data Center SKu's
you will only gain newer bits.

Again, you don't have a clue what you're talking about. Clearer heads? Mark
asked for additional information which Brian provided as he got to the
question before I did. This isn't a competition.

As we all can see, Brian Komar, mvp has
cleared away the confusion of the situation and now Mark Bohlsen can make a
better decision in how Mark would like to proceed and going to newer software
does not always mean that the huge investment return on the newer software is
worth the cost. Remember, Microsoft even has over 100+ pages about properly
securing and safeguarding Windows 98 and Windows NT computers available from
their website.

Would you please stop parroting the above. You're simply showing your lack
of knowledge and experience and you're certainly not helping anyone, quite
the contrary.
