  Windows XP: What's the Business Verdict?
Time: 05:26 EST/10:26 GMT | News Source: NewsFactor | Posted By: Alex Harris

When Microsoft introduced its latest operating system, Windows XP , late last year, the primary focus seemed to be on the consumer market. Ads filled with a peppy Madonna song and lovely blue skies were meant to get home users thinking XP. Missing from the airwaves was the equivalent for a business audience; no three-piece suited execs drifting through the clouds, looking for a better OS. But even without the strains of the Material Girl, some companies did decide to upgrade to the business version, Windows XP Professional. And though the business upgrade rate is not as brisk as Microsoft might wish, some analysts believe it is just a matter of time before XP Pro becomes the standard.

Greg Sullivan, Microsoft's lead Windows XP product manager, told NewsFactor that XP's overall adoption rate is higher than for any other Windows product. "Windows XP continues to be the fastest-selling version of Windows in history, with over 46 million copies sold through OEMs and retail outlets since its launch last October," Sullivan said. That number includes both home and corporate users; Microsoft has declined to release a breakdown of home version versus professional version sales.

Well, we have not adopted it yet. Only IT managers are allowed to have it on there systems. Then again, we only get new machines with 2K, I still have %75 of my machines at 95 or 98. And only now are we starting to use Windows 2000 Server. Company has 22,000 desktops and around 1500 servers.

Our business has managers who decided to not adpot XP. Rather install Win2000 on the same system instead. One curious quote I was given was "It is irresponsible to deploy XP."

???

Have no clue what brought that on. Personally, I rack it up to not understanding the Activation model, and simply not having Windows 2000 installed universally (don't want to support multiple OSes all at once--as it stands we still have some 95 machines floating about...and one Windows 3.11 terminal (don't ask...)).

We begin rollout's next month if everything continues as planned with our image building.

Cthulhu - An awful lot of people in IT are pretty ignorant. :( That's what brings it on.

The only reason XP is not being installed at first was that it did not play nicely with our VPN software, AT&T's fault. Office XP does not work with some of our spreadsheet adons. Other then that we buy the XP licenses and install 2K. When XP works with everything then we will just install it over the 2K. Also the first time XP was installed on our network the default setting of 802.11b being on killed a few of the main Cisco switches and routers that had not had there IOS updated. That pissed off a lot of the big wigs and they pretty much decided if 2K works then why go to XP.

How on earth did you end up with 1500 servers?!? How many system admins do you have? What drugs are they doing on a daily basis?

Please say you're running some kinda insane 512 machine, 386 cluster!?!

The company has 25 business units in the Broadcast division alone. We have a Corporate HQ in Chicago that has a whole floor of a high rise we own as the Data Center and we have several Television Production Facilities, as well as 11 newspapers. You do the math. There are over 100 Domains in total in the company and over 22,000 Users. Our Exchange GAL has 22,500+ objects in it. We do intend on merging all Domains into on AD Domain next year, and since the addition of Exchange a lot of the Domains users were put into a common domain for that division of the company and the remaining are just old ones that have no users and now serve as resource domains. Shit I just interviewed for a position at a school district that had over 60 servers and 2100 workstations, with a total of over 5 TB or storage space, that is for 5 schools in south central PA.

Whoa, 5 TB of storage for a school district? That seems like a lot.

We have around 5,000 employees, and probably on the neighborhood of 400 servers. Most of them are application or development servers, but still.
