  1. tight budgets??? on Windows Server 2003 Is A Small Step Forward · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Wouldnt it be cheaper for an IT manager on a tight budget to stick with 2000 Server rather than 2003 Server. I know I dont need it and I have a tight budget. We have most of our infrastructure already upgraded to win2k server at-least the stuff that will be migrated over. We will not be upgrading to 2003 server but rather get it as it comes preloaded on any new servers we buy.

    Actually the agrement that we have with microsoft being an enterprise customer we get every update to any product they release. We pay a flat fee every 3 years and get any thing they release in that time frame. yes it does cost a lot but we have over 2,000 servers and 15,000 desktops worldwide buying a copy of server for each server and a copy of office for every desktop.

    Ok so where is there a number I can call and talk to an MS Tech that will let me know how to fix a problem with out having to pay something like $100/hr??

    The reason no one calls about bugs is that there is no one place at MS to call.... I work in an IT dept... We log all our calls about Outlook and windows and other problems maybe we should send them a quarterly report....
