Zeev, big institutions are not planning to upgrade to XP.
This is all smoke and mirrors.

I have been in the cpmputer consulting industry for years.
I have heard no talk of upgrading.

Why would one want to.
Windows 2000/NT is stable, working well, and XP will take time, $, and people to implement.

What is the budget for such "discressionary" spending these days at major corporations. How about ZERO.

Cost/benefit. A big GOOSE EGG.
"Flying off the shelves" or whatever MSFT is total BS. They will not even give a number.

Why should they?
They can beat this non-existant number next month, and the next month after that, as long as they do not reveal it.

What a FN joke.
