> Dangerous words to say such evil things like Linux and NetWare

The reason why Linux and NetWare are gaining market share is because people are sick of MSFT taking forever to release a product. People want an OS capable of supporting TODAY's software, hardware, and technology, and they want it NOW. Who wants to wait for years for an upgrade?

In the short term, MSFT will prevail, but as OS's become easier to deploy and the learning curve becomes less steep for the "average" user, allegiance to MSFT will wane.

Flame away, but be advised I'm long on MSFT. I'm just telling the truth from my perspective.

Ciao,
John
