"My concern about CTXS is that as new applications are written, won't they be Web applications"

Beautiful dreamer,

(Sorry, those are the only words I remember!)

Currently, you lose a LOT of flexibility by writing "web applications", while getting a horribly clunky user interface vs. what people are used to.

Java has NOT delivered on it's promise, and most "web applications" today are primarly using server-side technologies such as ASP, Cold Fusion, etc. with a "page at a time" user interface with perhaps a bit of Javascript thrown in.

Sure, there are "web applications" being written, but they're a small percentage of total applications written. Yes, the classic client-server database application IS migrating to Intranet web applications. But other classes of applications are NOT.
