Jay, what a superb reply!, thanks.

As you went through your description, I began to recognize some traits, and arguments of a decade and a half ago, when I believe this platform was being introduced (read: tested) by one of Wall Street's blue chip darlings to replace a battery of Wang desktops and their associated "plumbing." It didn't fly then, but it wasn't for any reason that I can recall other than political (at that time no one had the kinds of traits you described that would nullify them in the same situations today as you described), since the firm had strong underwriting ties to IBM and their software "partner" in such areas at the time, MSFT.

It looks like you've given Harvey plenty to think about. Thanks. Frank
