Thanks everyone for the responses. NB the Client PCs are win98 and
Winxp sp2. The only NT we have in the company is on the server which
only does email and file sharing.

If I didn't hate giving Bill money so much, then I would upgrade to
server 2003. But I am still not convinced that this is really
necessary at this time. I am still thinking that I will wait approx
one year until the hardware service contract expires on my server and
I can buy a new one with a shiny new OS already installed... (and then
think about migrating my data etc to the new server)...
