Getting the most out of XP

I'd like to welcome my co-worker Ryan Femling to the ranks of the 3Sharp bloggers. I especially enjoy having Ryan onboard here at 3Sharp because, like me, he comes from a background of systems administration. He gets it, man; he's been in the trenches too. (Ask him about the kind of April Fool's Day jokes you can pull off when you have administrative access to SMS...)

Ryan kicks off his blog with a post about how to get the most out of Windows XP. My only quibble -- Symantec Anti-Virus? Dude!

I should have been more specific. SAV corporate edition, runs as lightweight as you tell it to. Run in a corporate environment, you can specify how much of the system resources you want it to run, the same options are there for the standalone client. And the biggest selling point is that in all of the years I've run it, not a single machine under my control has been infected.

I agree... the consumer version blows. the Corporate is not bad -- but "best" is a losing game - almost all the major vendor's AV clients are pretty darned decent these days (mcAfee/sym/trend/CA).

The real differentiator is the backend/admin system behind them...
