| Running a Microsoft Windows NT server these days is a brave (or,
| perhaps, stupid) thing to do: Support for the product has finished,
| and as far as Microsoft is concerned, the product should be put in a
| rest home for retired software. Windows Server 2000 is also getting
|                                 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| long in the tooth, and in a few years it too will reach the end of
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
| its support lifecycle and be looking for its rocking chair and
| slippers.

NHS Direct all better

| NHS Direct is back online this afternoon after going on the sick

| 
| According to Netcraft, the Windows 2000 server at the bargain
| basement hypochondriac magnet modern, accessible public healthcare
| resource was rebooted today. See here.
| 
| Whatever malady did for the box, it was "unexpected", as the message
| on the site explained for most of today.
| 
| NHS Direct was unavailable for comment at time of writing.

Microsoft Turns Up The Heat On Windows 2000 Users 

,----[ Quote ]
| What if you want to keep your old operating systems, such as Windows
| 2000, running as long as possible?
| 
| Microsoft isn't making it easy for you. Office 2007 and the software
| for the company's much-hyped Zune music player won't install on Windows
| 2000. As other new products emerge from Microsoft in 2007 and beyond,
| more and more of them are likely to leave Windows 2000 out of the party.
