If I understand it correctly, it is difficult to maintain a W2000 system
with many machines and users and have everyone be allowed a personal
profile.
(It is hard enough to maintain such a system in any case, blame Gates, and
bring back Unix!).
Our service has floating personal profiles (use them on any machine) for a
limited number of people with a need, and say it is easy to administer.
