On the other hand our 98SE systems are all still running 24/7 without
any problems an no need to pay good money to switch to XP. Since
Microsoft refuse to supply 98SE now, new systems come in with XP and get
wiped and 98SE installed.

WHEN XP actually passes our stability test it may get used, but I
suspect (hope) that the linux migration will happen first - then we
don't need to buy new hardware to get marginally better performance :)
