    Thats probably why you can afford a few 200Gb hard drives then... cause all your software's pirated!

    I'm runnin' 200Gb's in my system (1x120GB 2 x 40 in RAID0) and the server has 2 x 200Gb 10000 Ultra3's and 1 x 120 GB 7200 (oh... and a 1gb SCSI i found in a draw a few days ago!!!

    It's awesome , you can remove this time limitation by removing a file in the i386\ folder (can't remember the name exactly) then install just install it and it's final forever . Moreover , It's more flexible so that you can turn it into Professional look (as workstation or XP) . I'm sure , you don't visit Pirates' websites .do you ?

    I got the full copy a month back and it looks nice and works nice too...Performance rocks...

    But only trouble is it f***ed up my DUEL BOOT...I think it erases the MBR and writes its own...Damn MS...

    Will use it more after exams...

    Cheers...

    Just got a confirmation from a friend that it does effects the MBR so anyone who wants to test it, be ready to repair ur old OS or test it in VMWare (performance will go down by hell) or test it in different machine or removable HDD...

    And you can just add an entry to boot.ini.

    From what I've heard, there are a few things that won't run at all on it. SQL Server 2k is the only one that comes to mind right now, but there were a few others.

    SQL 2k will run BUT it has to have SP3 applied.

    Well, I think its supposed to be "dual", unless you are talking about a boot that you wear during hand to hand combat...
