Yup, we sure are. When we released the M2 Win95 demo, our FTP server
running NetPresenz crashed roughly a billion times and choked on most of
the downloads. We set up an NT server because we knew the demand would be
big for the Infinity demo. Last night at one point over 50 users were
grabbing the demo with no slow downs or problems. Sorry, NetPresenz just
doesn't cut it....
