RE: Re: Windows MCE

["Stuart McMillan" <stuartmc@xxxxxxxxxx>]

In principal you have one choice to have domain support when you install.
You must have an Ethernet card that has built-in support in XP so that it
can install the driver in set-up and join the domain during installation.
However the issue is if you install domain support at set-up you will
disable fast-user switching, no problem I don't use that says you. Big
problem says I, Extenders use fast-user switching so you can't have
extenders like XBox360 and domain support.

You may find further workarounds but this is the simple answer.

It's true - no domain support.  Bill thinks that domains are for work,
and home users won't want that.  Just like no-one would need more than
640k of RAM.

One day a company will demonstrate a home app that requires domains, and
he'll buy them and enable domains in the home versions of Windows.
