SS: I don't know much about SUNW, but I'm amazed about their marketing methods - some of them would be illegal over here. In many european countries, it is not allowed to compare a product with products from competing companies in commercials. It would not be legal for Sun to describe Windows in a commercial. And I have never seen a Sun commercial over here, and yes, they are big over here, too.

FUD and BS doesn't make us wiser. If you don't know other systems than Windows, you should talk to some expert on other systems about them. If you don't know Windows, you should start listening to what makes people like it. Most of my time on this thread goes with listening, not with writing.

Both SUNW and MSFT advocates have some factual basis for what they present, but that doesn't matter. We want overview and transparency. Not a modified form of truth.

That is why Europe has been in the van of all things technical I guess. Europe the inventor of and capitulator to Hitler. You guys make me want to puke with such patronizing baloney. If you were to trade on a level playing field the EU would become a subsidiary of McDonalds. Next time you get involved in a war take care of it yourself. JFD
